Darkest Light is the first track we get to hear from their upcoming EP “Restoration”, coming out October 27. Why do I say old song? Well, that song’s a modernized version of “Blind”, the first song off their 2007-2008 demo “Into the 5th Dimension”. It’s been a long time, but that demo was some of the best Haken material. Here’s a brief history lesson: before going all Dream Theater-esque on Visions, most notably, they used to blend circus music into their songs, and they used to incorporate some growls, too, most notable on “Aquarius”.

Blue-Eyed Hawk – Under The Moon

Stimpy Lockjaw – Stimpy Lockjaw
Stimpy Lockjaw is best described as “Fuck you and listen for yourself”. Simply put, it’s an improvisation jazz & metal crash course. Simplerly put: it’s freaking awesome and why the fuck aren’t you listening to it yet?
Nicholas Llerandi and Kevin Theodore (Ever Forthright) teamed up with Zachary Marks (drums) and Steve Jenkins (bass) to create a cow-tipping experience! It’s honestly one of the best-crafted pieces of music I’ve got to hear! A more aggressive Exivious, a more progressive (and metal) Axon-Neuron, Dillinjazz Escape Plan, Trioscapes with guitars or, really, just Ever Forthright on psychotropics … Read more
