Continuing the trend of "posting albums that I love," I give you "Traced in Air." This is Cynic's second album, with their debut "Focus" being released shortly before their breakup in 1994. It didn't really catch on immediately, the Death Metal/Jazz Fusion mix probably being initially off putting to most people. After reuniting in 2007 and finding a surprising amount of interest in their work, they decided to release a second album. In 2008, the completed and released "Traced in Air." The album definitely expands on the Jazz Fusion element in their music, but the metal definitely maintains its presence. If you even have a passing interest in either Metal or Jazz, I encourage you to give it a listen. It certainly didn't seem like the kind of thing that would attract my interest when I first came across it, but that view has certainly changed.
Tracklist:
