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!

The fifth full-length studio album by legendary American Progressive/Jazz Rock/Metal band.
Cynic has made its long-awaited return with "Ascension Codes", the highly anticipated follow up to 2014’s critically acclaimed "Kindly Bent To Free Us".
"Ascension Codes" is a remarkably far-reaching work, and if nothing else, a clear indication that they have landed in a place of mastery. The album, paradoxically, acts as both swan song and rebirth. It is, throughout its 49 minutes, a vivid and highly cosmic journey into the very core of every impulse this band has ever explored. Its nine main songs are infused with explosions of colour and energy, and throughout these compositions are embedded the “codes”.
"Ascension Codes" is a totality, a dense, must-listen-all-the-way-through experience!
Limited to 1500 copies, 24/48 mastered Hi-Res Audio Double Black Vinyl in Trifold cover, including big sized 8-page booklet.

After 15 years since their 1993 debut, "Focus", Cynic are back with the new album!
When guitarist Paul Masvidal and drummer Sean Reinert founded Cynic in 1987, they had more in mind than just another brutal sound. Extreme Metal riffing was fused with Jazz and Progressive Rock, gaining the Americans recognition far beyond the "scene". Their debut album, “Focus” (1993), soon became a sought after cult classic. Cynic disbanded during the fall of 1994 while working on a new album. When the legendary US band announced their reunion in 2007, all hell broke loose: a myriad of offers for festivals and tours immediately arrived at their desk and their dedicated fans as well as the press sang their praises.
Now Cynic came back stronger than ever: “Traced In Air” witnesses the band ascending to an even higher spiritual level of musicianship. Mathematical melodies pearl over oscillating soundscapes in glorious moments of pain and joy joining somewhere out in space: a monument of pure fascination!
