Amongst all the many bands and music that we have at our fingertips today this album really stands out and shines like a bright star. The lyrics resonate with me on the deepest level, it is refreshingly "soft" in a way where it gets the harder parts through smart structure, instrumentation and songwriting. What a journey! Well mixed, every instrument never missing a mark, enhancing each other, not trying to outshine anything and creating one so, so enjoyable experience. Musical artistry that stays within a very easily enjoyable framework, so that no matter if you exclusively listen to it, or if you listen while driving, walking, working. It just always works and keeps on delivering even after roughly 50-100 Playthru's already. The first 4 songs alone are such an experience. I hope many minds will be pulled to your art and you will continue to bless our ears in the future! I would easily put you in the top picks of artists I found in the last couple of years. alongside bands like Spiritbox, Anciients, Northlane, King Gizzard, Hippotraktor, Reliqa, Hail Spirit Noir and Perihelion Ship just to name a few. What a time to be alive! So I guess what I am trying to say is: THANKS, Traverser!

2:02 "Back in the darkness, where I belong, WHERE I BELONG" hits me deep everytime, such a great album

[@CasseyMayhle]

Hello from Nov 2022. Miss you guys

[@henrykendrick5267]

Love you David you and your band deserve greatness and beyond ❤❤❤❤

[@El__Leche]

one minute in and I'm headbanging hard already, awesome

[@traverserband]

Hell yea!

[@Yenneffer]

I just randomly found this album and look who's here. :D

[@pzafamily6527]

Straight fuckin' wow..! This is the best album I have heard in a very long time; straight run through is amazing..! Tool, Deftones, Led Zeppelin, Mastodon, Rush, Periphery, ... Pink Floyd even ... - & yet their own unique sound as well, smashing through all the influence.

[@andrewpark9279]

This album is next level for these guys - well done.

[@supersurferdave3784]

Amalthea is my favorite by far. The ending gets me every time. JDCAY was excellent. A few years ago you guys posted a instrumental demo version and it was such an experience to see how much the song has evolved since then. Keep rocking guys!

[@traverserband]

That's awesome you remember that early clip of JDCAY -- thanks so much for listening!

[@SpencerLuxBurton]

Agreed, Amalthea is transcendent.

[@henrykendrick5267]

I cannot explain my gratitude your band you have helped me to stay in this world. I love you guys so much and

[@iluvdistortion]

I seen you guys in Rock hill SC when you performed Redshift. You guys are awesome people. And your music is amazing! I can't wait for you to go back on tour again! Come through Wilmington NC!

[@andrewpark9279]

Oh wow - just found these guys on Spotify. Rare talent - Metis is str8 🔥.

[@tribunation]

Such a great album. Wow. 🙏

[@kibasoul]

Hey Traverser. I haven't told you in a while. You're freakin' awesome.

[@ImpShimadon]

Damn, you guys are the best thing that's happened to prog-metal in the last decade. I would really love though to hear longer compositions from you guys, like 8 or maybe >10 minute tracks.

[@Herpusderpus]

I really wish more people were exposed to your music, because you'd definitely have a larger fanbase if more people knew about it and gave it a go. I try to "spread the word" but have a tiny social circle. Thanks for making this music, though. You guys have quickly risen to the top of my favorites list. Total chicken-skin material.

[@cinthe3]

Thanks for still being awesome guys! Been around since before the first album, and it's still in my cd player.

[@traverserband]

Thanks so much \m/

[@billyr1]

[@noahillick4680]

Hey, are there going to be people making covers/tabs for Traverser songs. I have been dying to learn to play E.M.D and a bunch of other songs for the longest time.

[@traverserband]

We'll definitely keep that in mind -- it's something we'd love to do!
