Wow

"Well after a few hundred listens I have to say this is one of my favorite albums of all time. It's epic, its serene and its explosive. This is an album you can turn off all the lights and listen to with head phones and its fantastic. It is for sure a progressive metal album but not so over the top from some of the other prog giants. From songs 1-6 I personally haven't found a weak song yet. Especially the last song. Over 17min the last 5 minutes are a perfect ending to the cd. In fact I ripped just that last part because it's so good. Though there new cd Gloria wasn't at all like this. I applaud them for going in a different direction but it would have been awesome to hear something like this from them.



Do not hesitate to pick this album up."

Amazing, and refreshingly original

"This album just blew me away! Every track is loaded with great musicianship and well written lyrics.



Its difficult to categorize this CD, but different parts of songs reminded me of a few different bands. A little Opeth, a little Mushroomhead and the lead singer's voice deffinitely reminds me of System of Down.



I highly recommend this CD. And itd be impossible for me to pick any favorite tracks... they are all excellent!"
