Background
Promotional video single “Floating Point” was announced through Metal Hammer on January 30, 2016[1] with a remix released on the band’s official blog the following month.[2] On March 9, 2016 Metal Underground premiered the music video for “Pointers” along with the track listing for the album. Commenting on the release, Gallego stated the track was “one of my favorite [songs] so far.”[3] The same day the album was made available for pre-order on the band’s website with various bundle options. Some bundles included a MIDI version of the album on a floppy disk.[4][5] On March 30, 2016, two days before official release, the full album was streamed with Metal Hammer accompanied by Gallego's track-by-track analysis of the album.[6]
