Animals as Leaders is a Washington, D.C. based instrumental progressive metal solo project by eight-string guitarist Tosin Abasi. Their self-titled debut album was released in April 2009 by Prosthetic Records.
Animals as Leaders was formed “out of the ashes” of guitarist Tosin Abasi’s previous band, Reflux. The heavy metal record label Prosthetic Records saw Abasi’s guitar work and asked him to create a solo album for them. Abasi initially declined, feeling such an endeavor would be “egotistical and unnecessary”. When Reflux disbanded, Abasi decided to take the label’s offer. The name Animals as Leaders was inspired by Daniel Quinn’s 1992 novel Ishmael, which addresses anthropocentrism. Abasi coined the name as a reminder “that we’re all essentially animals”.
The project’s first album, Animals as Leaders, was recorded in early 2008. Abasi recorded all guitar and bass tracks on the album; drums and various synthesized effects were programmed by engineer Misha Mansoor. The album was released April 28, 2009 by Prosthetic Records.

Imo, this shouldn't be called a solo project. I think the other guys contribute to the music way too much and they deserve as much cred as Abasi (atleast some of them). Still fucking awesome music though.

@vladdypwns: No, you're not right. It's not right to say one is better than the other. They are both in their own field. Just for the record though, Blotted Science use much more mature music styles as opposed to sweeps that sound cool and playing really fast. Not saying that isn't good every now and then but it's been done before - whereas Blotted Science is quite original.

I had no idea this was a project from ex-reflux members. I saw reflux way back when they opened up for strapping young lad in toronto, they were a talented group.

"good tunes! the best part with this kind of music is when you press "stop" and then feel the value of silence lol " Probably worded strangely...I assume? But I'd prefer this playing constantly in the background of my entire life to complete silence to be honest :P

Blotted Science is good and all... but Animals as Leaders is clearly better. Maybe not as concise as Blotted Science, but who cares about that, amirite?
