A single concept, Absolute, separated into three albums, each movement tells a story of humanity. A virus. An epidemic. Transmission’s ambient introduction eases the listener into the story of the virus’s origins, ultimately culminating in The Host, which ties Transmission to its successor. Desolate reels the listener deeper into the story. Fireflies of North Brother’s melodic beginning gives way to skull-crushing riffs and heavy, distorted guitars. Desolate’s finale, Mother Nature is a Serial Killer, concludes with a hypnotic synth vamp, reminding listeners that man must first understand the disease before he seeks a cure. The Way It Always Was opens Rebirth with a singular guitar: a moment of reflection upon the chaos and uncertainty. The entire band then erupts from the calm, soon exploding into Blood For Mercy. The sonic contortions of How Ruthless We Can Be remind listeners that healing cannot occur without loss. Finally, To Dust We Shall Return marks the end of the listener’s journey with the promise of rebirth.
