Thanks Neil Folkard (Prog On) for the review: “On The Compromise Rationale the second part of a trilogy (part one being Fictional Mirrors), Jason layers multiple Warr Guitars and experiments with all kinds of effects, to create a truly menacing and unearthly musical landscape. At once cinematic, haunting and image-provoking, this is truly musical food for emotional thought.”

New Video Coming
A new video for “A Certain Balance,” from the upcoming album, The Compromise Rationale, will be released this week. Using a similar approach to the other videos from The Ternary Instinct trilogy, it employs a storyline with imagery and symbolism. Created by longtime collaborator, Alex Smith, I think that he created a video is both thought provoking and visually stunning.

The Ternary Instinct Part Two
I am excited to announce the release date for “The Compromise Rationale,” the second part in the “Ternary Instinct” trilogy. The album will be released on September 23rd on Wayfarer Records. Whereas, “Fictional Mirrors” explored the superego, “The Compromise Rationale” takes on the ideas surrounding the ego. Once again, the album was completely recorded using the Warr guitar and features artwork by the incredible, Michal Karcz.
