 Around 1996, with the release of "Meditavolutions", a 70-minute continuous piece in the form of a musical palindrome, the band began to go by the name the Iceburn Collective, to reflect the dynamic nature of the group's membership.The lineup expanded with a saxophonist, percussionist on conga drums, and a second guitarist.Critic Bret Love writes of the album, "the eclectic sound of this Utah-based septet flows so seamlessly that it may take a few songs before you realize you've never heard anything quite like it."
