I just found this on another forum. The quality is brutal, in a BAD way, but this one is called "Evolutionary Sleeper". Based on the lineup changes and the absence of Tony Teegarden, I was in serious doubt about the quality of the reunion tour, but it sounds like they're thankfully still at the top of their game, and Chris Kringel is a unheralded killer bassist. Also, it's heresay at this point, but I believe Cynic is also working on a new album. If this video is any indicator, it sounds like they won't disappoint the die-hard fans.

Anyways, thought I'd share this.

This is the coolest thing I've seen in a while. Thanks for sharing. I would have never thought Cynic would have new material.

I haven't yet checked their albums out, but didn't a couple of them play on Death's "Human" album? If so, that one rocks! Any Cynic recommendations (meaning, where to start)?

The only album they put out is "Focus", which still sounds astonishingly fresh and vital for a record made over 15 years ago.
