The instrumental prowess of Origin's players is mighty impressive here. But be forewarned—there's not an ounce of melody detected anywhere.

Ridiculously technical, fast, and punishing.

But, as amazing as much of the playing is, some of the songwriting seems to suffer under the weight of all the technicality.
