Another Twisted Dream
"Fans of prog rock should rejoice at the sound that Collective offers! Blissfully marrying long form prog metal with a more concise format, Another Twisted Dream is the perfect dose of distortion for a quick fix but still carries enough craftsmanship to warrant a second, third, or fortieth listen."

A million little pieces
"The tone of this track is blissfully melancholic! That first 7/8 guitar part sets the stage so well, and the lead vocals are perfect in approach. Transitions between the softer and heavier moments are wonderful, and the driving 6/8-5/8 moments feel absolutely joyous! This is incredibly well constructed and executed."

Truth Awaking - Platan
"'Truth Awaking' it is hard, juicy, but also ambitious and striking. Collective's musicians have a hand and an ear to create catchy and sharp heavymetal licks that crush the listener into an armchair and remarkable, thrilling melodies, as well as building intriguing progression and introducing pleasantly contrasts."
