MOUTH OF THE ARCHITECT – the ties that blind – CD

The Ties That Blind reflects everything Mouth of the Architect have had to overcome in the two year time span since their debut Time and Withering was released. With the stunning sounds of The Ties that Blind, Dayton Ohio’s Mouth of the Architect consciously delved deeper into prog-metal territory than before while still maintaining their key atmospheric droning sounds. The album reflects the group’s love of Yes, King Crimson and Mahavishnu Orchestra with single-note progressions and a wider sound continuum. Featuring Brian Cook of These Arms Are Snakes and Botch on bass and a guest appearance from Brent Hines of Mastodon.
