This three song EP is incredible! I had the biggest smile on my face listening to the last song. After the final song ended, I was curious what the title of such a song might be, and I wasn't even surprised when I saw it was called "The Pursuit of Hapiness."  Awesome, powerful, uplifting, feel good progressive metal, fo free.

Holy shit, finally something comes around that truly blows my mind. You should really give this song a listen, this band deserves recognition. The three piece brings together the best bass tapping I've ever heard, spicy and cerebral guitar riffs, and pulsating drum rhythms, but my favorite part has to be the vocals. With lines like "Those memories are genetically engineered vegetables, that grow in the cold rows, fed with red dye", "The house is dressed in skeletal lighting" and "I spoke in smoke, they all looked like candies", I am reminded of writers like Jon Mess and Primus.

This has been out for awhile but I'm just coming across it. Artwork is certainly intense, and from what I hear this is an improvement from their last album.

"So many of our friends and families were directly affected by Hurricane Sandy, we felt we needed to do something to help out. Starting today you can pay-what-you-want & download an exclusive 5-song EP on Bandcamp with previously unreleased b-sides from Circa Survive and Psychic Babble (Colin's solo project), plus remixes of Anthony's solo songs "When I'm On Pills" (Stephen Clifford remix ft. Chris Weyh) and "Get Yours While You Can" (Psychic Babble remix), and an instrumental song by Brendan ... It's all in the family."





 Can't forget to mention another beautiful piece of artwork by Esao Andrews, it reminds me of Wind Waker.

I'm a fan of all the jazz and progressive metal fusions that are hitting the scene, it just might be the next big thing. This band certainly does it well, and I believe this is just their first release.  Awesome album artwork.
