CYNIC
The third full-length studio album by legendary American Progressive/Jazz Rock/Metal band.
The final Cynic album with Sean Reinert, who left the band in September 2015 and died on January 24, 2020, as well as the final Cynic album with Sean Malone, who died on December 9, 2020.
Over four years in the making, "Kindly Bent To Free Us" is a new apex in the evolution of Progressive Rock visionaries. The album's eight tracks are rich, vibrant, and evocative, and the mark of a band that are masters of their craft. "Kindly Bent To Free Us" is at the same time a natural continuation of best-selling album "Traced in Air" (2008) as well as a collection of new ideas incorporating new elements distilled from their musical experiments conducted on the two EPs, "Re-Traced" (2010) and "Carbon-Based Anatomy" (2011). As "True Hallucination Speak", "The Lion's Roar", and the title track personify, Cynic 2014 is transcendent. Without a doubt, "Kindly Bent To Free Us" is Cynic's tour de force and yet another crescendo in the band's illustrious, ground-breaking career.
The alchemy of frontman Paul Masvidal and rhythm-maniacs Sean Reinert and Sean Malone should equally appeal to Cynic enthusiasts as well as connoisseurs of Porcupine Tree, Opeth, The Pineapple Thief, Katatonia, and Ulver. Now these leaders of their genre offer you "Kindly Bent To Free Us". Listen well!
