The Augusta, Maine based, experimental prog-metal sextet will hit the road in February for their first Canadian run of dates and will then meet up with the legendary ATHEIST. The band will also be appearing at this year's New England Metal and Hardcore Festival in Worcester, MA on April 16th. You can pre-order the CD now, either on its own, or with a shirt at this location

Last Chance To Reason teamed up with producer Jamie King (BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME) to create a modern take on the classic progressive concept album. Drawing influence from the 70's prog of KING CRIMSON and YES, composers Steve Reich and Schoenberg as well as prog-metal masters OPETH, DREAM THEATER and CYNIC, Last Chance To Reason's Level 2 takes the band in awe-inspiring new directions.

Set in a Tron-like virtual world, the album's concept revolves around the relationship between man and technology, our move from physical reality to virtual spaces and what these changes mean to our lives and our art. The lyrics are expressed from the point of view of an artificial intelligence facing the violent reality of a videogame world.
