5 stars Simply the best album of its type in my opinion.

The lyrics are interesting and the music (i feel) is amazing and beautiful without being stuck on extended guitar or keyboard solo's. (Not that i don't enjoy solo's :P)

The lineup of vocalists in particular is amazing. Devin (Strapping Young Lad among other things) and Mikael (Opeth) add some interesting touches with vocals often reserved for heavier music. The style of vocals also fits together beautifully.

It is definately not an album that works well with the following: a) A single listen doesn't suffice for most people to understand the story being presented b) Listen to for a musical quick hit. Its beautiful and very immersive but its not something that works brilliantly as background music.

| 5/5 |
