Unless Sean Malone is back in, I'm not that interested.

Malone was never actually that involved in the compositional side of the band, so I can't actually see his absence making much of a difference. Besides, Cynic have had some other great bassists over the years (Chris Kringel, Tony Choy...).

Yeah, but everything Malone HAS been compositionally involved in has kicked more ass than "Focus," in my opinion. It's a great album, but compare it to "Emergent" and ask which one is more musically memorably (while still being proggy), and it's a no-brainer.

I like Cynic, byt I LOVE Gordian Knot. I just hope he hurries up and finishes #3.

Gordian Knot is amazing. "Reflections" is a masterpiece. The rest of the s/t wasn't that great but Emergent is a perfect album.

I really dig Kringel's playing, but he is no Malone.

I'd just like to say, I was at the very first reunion show at Hellfest, and what a fucking awesome show it was!

Evolutionary sleeper is damn awesome, I really hope they get together and do something awesome again!

On a related note, am I the only one who'd like to hear them playing some of the Portal material with Aruna Abrams again?
