Tuesday: Intronaut - Sundial

     Those in the know are already aware that Intronaut is capable of crafting some pretty epic stuff. Those not in the know are about to get a lesson. School is now in session.

     "Sundial", from Intronaut's 2008 album Prehistoricisms, contains a lot of what makes Intronaut good -- heavy, proggy riffing, mostly -- but I think my favourite part is the "verse" drum beat with its off-kilter rhythm and precise use of the ride cymbal's bells. It sounds like the mechanical workings of some menacing heavy metal machine. Check it out and think steampunk monsters.
