I still believe that this is TesseracT's magnum opus. Even though I love Dan, Ashe brought so much more to the band when it comes to vocal melodies. Of Matter is probably one of the best moments of progressive music ever.
Calabi-Yau should go out first.

Screw you


EDIT: I love Of Matter but I really don't like the instrumental section in the middle of Proxy and it brings my opinion for the entire song down by quite a bit. It feels pretty weird voting out sections of what I consider four songs, but a survivor with only 4 options would be kinda weird too. The other Of Matter songs I love beginning to end and I'll probably stay away from them for a while.

Calabi-Yau. Killer solo, but still.

This is a great album, but my least favorite from them.

Of Energy - Singularity
I've been drinking beer since I was 18 and dabbled since I was 16. I have at least 500 beer bottles in my collection and love the fancy shit though my wallet doesn't. I'll drink liquor not even five times a year including shots or mixed drinks. Jack Daniels and Coke is an easy go-to for me. Very smooth nads candy sweet.

I'm not doing a 4-song album survivor. There's no point in that and I don't consider these songs with the exception of Of Energy anyway.

No. Because a few of these don't flow into each other in any way. Of Matter does, Of Energy does, but Of Mind really really doesn't, and Of Reality does sort of, but not always. It's a mess, so a lot easier to treat them as 10 songs.

I really like Calabi-Yau too, but "the best"? Really?

It doesn't hold up against the other songs as a separate song enough for me to call it the best song. But I can say that Calabi-Yau is the single-most important factor to make Of Reality my favorite section of the album, brilliant unique way to close it and I would never have thought I could've liked a sax solo in djent this much.

Sax solos are amazing in any context.
