This is the fourth album from The Elysian Fields, a relatively obscure Greek death metal outfit. The constant style fluctuations will probably merit some comparison to Japanese experimental masters Sigh, but the style's turbulent vicissitudes aren't that similar. It's obvious that they've developed and practiced this sound, though: the technical finesse of this album is astonishing. In places it rivals the legendary Cynic album, and in places it can match the best In Flames and Edge of Sanity.
