3 stars Released in 2008, "The Gnomon" features moments of creativity that hint at the band's potential for future success. The instrumentation is varied, drawing from different styles and influences, which adds a unique layer to the sound. However, the album overall struggles with inconsistency and a lack of cohesion. Certain transitions feel abrupt, disrupting the flow and making the listening experience feel disjointed. While some tracks make a strong impression, others are forgettable, and a few even fall flat, contributing to the album's uneven quality.

At over 90 minutes, the album may lose the listener's attention by the end. It might have been more effective if the best moments were condensed into a single, tighter release. In conclusion, "The Gnomon" showcases Antony Kalugin's talent, but its length and inconsistency hold it back from reaching its full potential.
