one of the best well hidden outro riffs in metal history!!!

Thanks for the heads-up, mate!

Q: "What time signature was that in?" A: "All of them"

[@SilverAlex92]

Second half of this song has one of the most amazing instrumentals ever, both in guitar and in bass

[@54nitay]

The bassist to the gutarist when they wrote the album Guitarist : But man it's a normal thing that the guitar will lead and will be more volumed Bassist : BEND OFF BITCH AND OBEY!

[@matiasquinoneros2569]

LOL!!! NICE COMMENT!

[@marshpederu]

man, I feel ya

[@eldritchthangalang8800]

It's too bad this was just a side project band for all of the musicians that were involved in it. I'd like to hear a new album from them again, it probably won't happen though. :/

[@bateriaeletronica]

Perfect song

[@Kn0wOneNos3]

This and Insect are my favorite songs, just great music! There's really something magical about that last guitar solo, too. Wow.

[@genaroreyes294]

Agree, but, is guitar and keyboard

[@NickYT90]

There's a certain metaphysical quality to this song and it's lyrics. Otherworldly almost :) I remember hearing this back in like 2005 and it blew my mind.

[@ShadeSlayerIII]

at 3:08 ... just WOW !!!

Most beautiful interlude ever

Solo makes me explosively shit in my pants every time I hear it.

[@volneygordon2811]

the outro to this and conjuring collapse are mythical.

[@NickYT90]

H Scott Hah! You put a lot of thought into this! That's awesome, how fitting - as I think the band also put a lot of thought in :)

[@JatinderGill9]

the beginning of cloud constructor i think is necessary to set up that outro. Wouldn't be quite as epic without the slow build-up.

[@primus1984]

Actually, they're pretty much "copying" Psychotic Waltz's style from a decade earlier... Listen their first two albums: "A Social Grace" and "Into the Everflow". Same sound minus some fusion wich wasnt present in Psychotic Waltz.

[@Arfinand6]

"God Hides Within The Machines"

[@progride2328]

I'm not sure what exactly the lyrics mean but that line sounds insanely epic

[@NostraFnDamus]

It's the literal translation of "Deus Ex Machina"

[@NostraFnDamus]

EvilAlbear When I hear that line I take it to mean "Take a deep breath and prepare to try and headbang to sick music in insanely complicated time signature"

[@Arfinand6]

it's 6/8, but sick regardless
