“Dare and you can do it. Acolyte does, and the result is astonishing”

“ Entropy is an all-encompassing event”
– Powerplay magazine

“Intelligent Prog Metal from down under… poignant, emotionally driven melodies that brings to mind modern Dream Theater”

Chris Cameron (drums), says this about performing Idiosyncrasy live
“Idiosyncrasy is one of our longer tracks that really goes to another level when we play it live. There are so many dynamic, emotive and intricate sections that feature all members of the band which makes it both a challenge and thrill to play, but on top of that this tune has a deep atmosphere and narrative that really hits home in a live setting. We’re proud to have captured this performance from our recent set at Chapel Off Chapel which we’d like to share as a taste of what we’re planning to take on the road, hopefully very soon.”
