Black music cassette.

Background information über 'Uroboric Forms: The Complete Demo Recordings'

Before Cynic became progressive metal legends with their groundbreaking album "Focus", the band was crafting some of the most innovative and forward-thinking extreme metal of the late 80s and early 90s. "Uroboric Forms: The Complete Demo Recordings" captures this formative period in stunning detail, showcasing the raw genesis of what would become one of metal's most influential acts. These demo recordings reveal a band already pushing boundaries, blending technical death metal with jazz fusion elements and philosophical lyrics that would define their unique approach to heavy music.

The collection spans multiple demo sessions, presenting both the original "Uroboric Forms" material and additional tracks that demonstrate the band's evolution during this crucial period. You can hear Paul Masvidal's distinctive guitar work taking shape, while the rhythm section lays down the complex foundations that would later bloom into full jazz-metal fusion. The production may be raw, but the vision is crystal clear - this is essential listening for anyone wanting to understand how progressive metal truly began to take shape in the underground scene.

For fans of: Death, Atheist, Pestilence, and Gorguts
