(Crucial Blast, 2007)1. Mars Ascendent
2. Blood Alone Does Not A Father Make
3. Dark Was The Night Cold Was The Ground
4. The Sheltering Sky
5. Invocation In The Caldera
6. Coragyps Atratus (Ego To Absolvo)
"A band not afraid to experiment, SYA add laser-edged synths, electronics, psychedelic ambience and distant harmonica within the album's earthy production. It's a beguiling mix that sees them construct sounds from the thundering opener "Mars Ascendant" through to the skewed psychedelia of "Coragyps Atratus (Ego To Absolvo).
The outstanding "Sheltering Sky" should surely come with a health warning. Not since "Sky Valley" era Kyuss have we heard a gargantuan groove like this. Amassing a sound that resembles a titanic foghorn, "Sheltering Sky" reaches a level that could just about cauterize your arteries."
