The only problem ive ever had with Cynic,is the vocals. The robot style crap on thier first album,makes it tough for me to listen to,even though the playing was way ahead of its time. They were about as popular as Athiest back then,which is not very,but way ahead of thier time. Definately headphone music,i'll check it no doubt!

Well I hope Paul does all the leads - the first thing that got me into Cynic years ago (and lead to me picking this name) was the lead in "Veil of Maya". I'd never heard anyone play guitar remotely like that at the time and you still rarely do.
Oh and for all I know Malone isn't playing on this, Cynic is a Paul and Sean venture now.

New Hammers of Misfortune album and Cynic too? Life is good! Haven't heard a single thing about where they'll take the direction of the band from the last album but I imagine it will be a step in a new direction. I'm not expecting it to sound like their 91 demo anyway.
