Many people would disagree with that statement, but look and listen to them, don't they look like a pack of genius'.

This album continued in the quite psychadellic way of Flower Power, but still maintaining their symphonic style.

I do prefer the more melodic and hard rock style's these guys produce, but this is still a fantasitc album.

I do slightly prefer Flower Power, but this one doesen't fall far behind.

1. I Am The Sun (Part 1) - This is an amazing start to the album, and to the epic I Am The Sun. With enough prog to shake a stick at, this is one amazing piece of music. 9/10

2. Dream On Dreamer - Quite a mellancholic, but laidback moment, this is quite a change from the epics, but does work very well. 8/10

3. Rumble Fish Twist - One of the best prog instrumentals I've ever heard. It doesn't come close to La Villa Strangiato, but this does have enough melody and techanacallity to satisify enyone. 10/10

4. Monster Within - Quite dark and a tad eccelectic. Amazing instrumental work throughout. 9/10

5. Chicken Farmer Song - This may sound weird, but this is my favourite song off thi album. I don't know why, I just love the chorus and the vocals throughout. The vocal harmonies are incredibly beautiful. 10/10

6. Underdog - Has pretty cool chorus. Great song with some great vocals from Roine. 8/10

7. You Don't Know What You've Got - A nice acoustic ballad from Hans. Great composition. 9/10

8. Slave To Money - The most King Crimson esque song on the album. Very eccelectic, indeed. 9/10

9. A King's Prayer - Sounds very anthemic, almost like The Flower King's national anthem, or Sweden's national anthem. 9/10

10. I Am The Sun (Part 2) - The best part of the song. Has some phenomanal instrumetnal sections. When Roine say's, "I'm as free as a ...FISH," I nearly pissed myself.

CONCLUSION: Again, not their best, but still a great release. If you didn't like it, then ask yourself one question, could you make any better?
