The leitmotiv in Synopsis is an homage to the group's various periods of composition styles. Tracks Arcano and Islemind are pieces in which an unusual melodic vein finds its place; Rhapsody and Fugue contains a complex four-part fugue in baroque style; Oblivion is a tribute to the psychedelic period; while Snake Dream pays homage to the band's hard rock period; Moses is a short opera which calls back to Abraham; and Flighting Thoughts provides acoustic guitar in the foreground.
