More Info:

Fifteen years after their legendary, genre-bending debut, FOCUS, jazz fusion / death / prog-metal pioneers deliver the fantastic, TRACED IN AIR. True to this bands legend status, this sophomore release sees the nebulous crew reach new heights of exploration, straight into the heart of CYNICs soul. Like the bands debut, this landmark effort in originality and foresight erases and re-traces the lines between musical genres. Featuring Paul Masvidal & Sean Reinert from the Human line-up of the legendary band, DEATH! These virtuoso visionaries influenced every prog- metal band out today from DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN to OPETH to MESHUGGAH. The only predictable thing about the proficient pioneer that is "Traced in Air" is certain to become an earmark in the evolution of modern metal.

Reviews:

Traced in Air is the second full-length album by the progressive/technical death metal fusion band Cynic. It is the first album since their 1993 debut Focus. Cynic disbanded during the fall of 1994 while working on the album. In January 17, 2008 Cynic resumed musical activity and Paul Masvidal said he wanted to complete the project after the Reunion Tour. It was originally believed that Cynic would be working with Jason Suecof of Capharnaum fame. However, Warren Riker (Down's producer) is working with the band. Tymon Kruidenier was then announced as replacement for Senescu. Kruidenier will also be handling the death growls for the album.
