Musical Style

Their sound is characterised by the changing time signatures and polyrhythms associated with math rock. The band themselves have described their sound as "Yes (70s prog band - ask your Dad) playing Meshuggah songs"[2] Their progressive tendencies has also lead to comparisons being drawn with "King Crimson, Rush or Steve Howe.[3]"
