About the Album
This 10-track instrumental prog metal opus represents three years of intensive creative work and marks my most complete musical statement to date. Every instrument has been performed and produced by myself, with guest appearances by Jay Parmar on "Pulse" and "Magnolia Ave" (solos 2 and 4). The stunning cover artwork is created by Mark Bridgeman.
The Title's Meaning
The title completes a full circle that began with my first EP "Evolution" in 2008 - this album represents the final chapter of that 17-year artistic journey. Beyond personal evolution, the title also addresses contemporary social themes: the unnecessary and potentially risky overuse of AI, cyber media, and information overload in our modern world.
First Single: "Undercurrent"
The album opens with "Undercurrent", a powerful metaphor for events unfolding in the shadow of seemingly larger occurrences. Written in 2020, the song reflects on significant historical events of our current century.
