Produced by 3x Grammy winning, Warren Riker (Lauryn Hill, Fugees, Santana), the album is a startling departure from what his legions of fans have ever heard, but Masvidal's music defies expectations and easy pigeon-holing.
"Mythical Human Vessel is certainly a departure from Cynic. Elliott Smith is a touchstone, and Masvidal’s voice is sometimes reminiscent of Thom Yorke. Warren Riker, who produced the series, gave it an airy feel, with subtle flourishes of pedal steel guitar and keyboard fleshing out the music but never getting in Masvidal’s way." - Bram Teitelman, Billboard Magazine
