Cynic

Fabuleux, un nouveau CYNIC pointe le bout de son nez !

Citation :

Progressive rock/metal band CYNIC will release its new album, "Kindly Bent To Free Us", on February 14, 2014 via Season Of Mist. Songtitles set to appear on the effort, which was recorded at Perfect Sound studios in Hollywood, California with engineer Jason Donaghy, include "Endlessly Bountiful", "Moon Heart Sun Head" and "True Hallucination Speak".

The cover artwork for "Kindly Bent To Free Us" can be seen below.

The group's drummer, Sean Reinert, previously stated in an online posting: "Some people are gonna be pissed and others are gonna say 'thank you!!!' I'm with the latter!"

He added: "It's a bold new sound for CYNIC and marks a gigantic leap in the band's progression."

In a February 2012 interview with Ireland's Molten magazine, guitarist/vocalist Paul Masvidal described the band's new music in the following way: "It's almost like, I don't know how to explain it, but if I had to put it in a box it's more sci-fi, futuristic and alien but at the same time very song-driven. It's kind of like, to me, coming into CYNIC's body more. It feels very modern and at the same time it just feels really cool. I'm big in the space. It's definitely new. It's not like anything we've done before. It's a new color, a new space. I think people will really take note of even the guitar stuff. I'm really shifting gears, I'm trying things in a different way and the way stuff is played. It's a new space for CYNIC, for sure. It definitely sounds like us, except completely new."

Ancestor, j'ai déplacé ton message ici !

L'album se prend un 8/10 dans le dernier numéro de Rock-Hard. Apparemment, les voix "death" ont totalement disparu et les morceaux sont plus longs (l'album aussi, puisqu'il dépasse les 40 minutes).

Autant je n'avais pas vraiment accroché à Focus, autant Traced In Air avait été une grosse claque, j'attends donc son successeur avec impatience !  

Un p'tit titre cool :

J'aime beaucoup ce disque !
Deux écoutes au compteur et une furieuse envie de remettre ça rapidos !!

Yep, j'aime bien aussi, plus du tout extrême, mais fin et tellement plus riche qu'il n'y parait !

Oui, en deux écoutes, il y a déjà pleins de passages qui m'ont titillé l'oreille et donné l'envie de réécouter !

Et cette basse est addictive  

J'ai écouté celui la et j'ai pas aimé  



  

Le groupe se sépare une nouvelle fois ? :

It is with a heavy heart that I post today's CYNIC news. CYNIC is no longer an active band. Due to artistic and personal differences, the second chapter in the ‘BOOK OF CYNIC’ has come to an end.

I will say the last shows we played in JAPAN have left me with a positive charge, even though they were the last live performances with Paul, Sean Malone & I on the same stage. My longstanding creative partnership with Paul, which started when we were very young kids in south Florida, has simply endured so much friction that there is no way, from my perspective, that CYNIC can be salvaged, repaired or kept afloat by any means.

I profusely apologize to the fans who were not only expecting us in China & Taiwan (that was not our fault), but to the fans who were planning to see us in Europe next month. These things happen, unfortunately, to bands. There can be differing levels of conflicts and/or differences in opinions, musical directions, or perspectives. Sometimes these things are insurmountable, and no amount of time or effort can resolve them. This is the case with CYNIC.

This page will stay up, and of course there are our respective personal pages and websites that will continue to let everyone know what we’re doing individually.

I wish all of you love & peace.

Et c'est tendu :

Instead of playing into the "tit for tat" game of trying to defend any accusations of unscrupulous behavior on my part, with regards to the split of Cynic (Paul and I: Two people, Not three) would be childish. But he's caught in a lie below saying he can't post and I took over the page which is obviously not true. I'll leave it at that. I can't physically stop Paul from playing CYNIC's music with other musicians, but it won't be CYNIC, merely Paul playing CYNIC songs with hired guns, which as stated he's wanted for a while. This isn't the way I wanted things to work out.
