Finally some replies, it was all *crickets* for so long.

I generally find this style of music difficult to get into but I "get" these guys somehow.  I read comments like "sounds like Polyphia" and I *smh* cuz they don't at all just cuz there's two guitars in it.  Polyphia write "pop" songs (and use WAY too many bar flutters) and they don't have keys.

I just can't stand headless guitars, no matter how cool the body is.  :\

Now, is it "ARK EKKO" or "ARTCH EKKO"?

Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Yeah, I’ve listened to their album several times through on Spotify, really good stuff. I dig it.

A band like this makes me wonder how/what they would sound like if they tracked down a solid rock vocalist...

Ok, it's ARTCH EKKO, I heard Joey Izzo (keys) say it in a video.

Even though I can't stand headless guitars, you gotta admit the level of on-the-fly customization you can get on these is amazing:

Great stuff!  And that self titled album cover art!  :o  Can't believe that's not on vinyl!

One day I'll get into the vinyl scene.  It's on my bucket list.

So I purchased the debut on iTunes. Firstly, they are phenomenal players, and the keyboardist adds a lot in contrast with the guitars. I hear a lot of FROST* (Remember them?)
 I'm not a fan of Djent and this has enough of it to turn me off. I'll give it another try, but at this moment, I don't care if I ever listen to it again.

Sort of side note... The first thing I heard was on the linked video. I find myself influenced into liking music much more when it's accompanied by a video. Then, when I listen to the audio only, my opinion changes sometimes and I'm just, "meh".
