Prog legend CYNIC have released a rare, never seen before live performance video of “King of Those Who Know” from their 2010 ‘Traced in Air’ tour in Mexico City at the EYESCREAM METALFEST II. The footage was lost until recently, when producer/animation director, Gabriel Raso sent the recovered footage to the band. The video is dedicated to the memory of drummer, Sean Reinert.
CYNIC founder Paul Masvidal comments: “I’m grateful to be sharing this rare moment from our concert history with you. Cynic was a fluid and supercharged band at this point after many tours for Traced in Air, so it’s a real gift to revisit this show again. It also touches my heart to see the great, Sean Reinert doing what he did best. Hugs to the friends and colleagues who helped make this night happen, and thank you Mexico for a memorable evening, you guys rule!
Love, Paul Masvidal”.

CYNIC‘s latest release Ascension Codes is a remarkably far-reaching work, and if nothing else, a clear indication that they have landed in a place of mastery. The album, paradoxically, acts as both swan song and rebirth.
‘Ascension Codes’ can be ordered at the Season of Mist E-Shop, the CYNIC Bandcamp, and official CYNIC shop. The album can be streamed/downloaded HERE.
