"Progressive metal is an open minded platform, solid enough that we can build up on it freely, and broad enough to carry a vast dimension of expression and musicality. So when a spark of idea appears, all techniques, skills and available styles of music become tools that we can use to carefully grow the spark into something beyond expectation. We are musicians, and our job is to create the best music at the moment we can.
I am lucky and grateful to be in this wonderful team with Yas and Ziyin. Together we made this project into reality.
I want to thank my parents, family and friends for their endless love and support, and Rob Carson and Matt Garstka for the inspiration, motivation and their mentoring over all these years."
- Lang Zhao


"Lang and I have been trying to put a project together for several years, and now it’s finally here.
We had many guest musicians that are also our good friends. I’m very grateful to be able to create music with these outstanding musicians.
I’d like to say thank you to Lang, Ziyin, my parents, family, friends and all the people that have supported me over the years.
Hope you enjoy the album."
-Yas Nomura

Beyond expectations.
