[15] McKinney also shared that the album was being recorded at Bota Studios and that Brandon Paddock (John Feldman‘s engineer) would be providing mixing duties.

[17] At the end of January, the band shared that they planned to release the new track "Follow The Signs" as a digital single via iTunes on Tuesday, February 1.

[18] Lee McKinney explained that the track had been recorded a few different times; once as a demo with Misha Mansoor of Periphery, and once again for "The Discovery," which had a different structure.

[19] The track, as well as the album, were recorded at BOTA Studio in Lake in the Hills, Illinois and was mixed by Jason Suecof.

[31] On March 17, the band announced that customers who purchased the album via FYE would receive copies containing three previously unreleased bonus tracks.

"[39] The review noted that when played at "high volume on a good system, it becomes even more apparent that 'The Discovery' is packed full of amazing musicianship (the guitar work in especially),some scintillating synthesizer lines, and numerous cool "parts."

"[38] Writing for PopMatters, Chris Colgan wrote that the album was "solid" with a "number of unexpected twists and turns," and praised the continued evolution of the band's sound, though noting some may accuse them of Meshuggah influenced "trend-jumping.

"[40] Colgan praised the solos from McKinney and Richardson, as well as the increased keyboard presence from Buras, concluding: What makes The Discovery special is its expansion of the band’s sound, which it does very well.

Showing a more complete grasp of their compositional range, this group will now be able to reach a very widespread audience and make them regular listeners.
