5 stars I don't recall I had hear something like this ever before.After hearing single track on Progarchives I decided to give this album a try.Purchased it few days back and i'm still recovering from the brutal attack on all of my senses.Sleepytime gorilla museum is highly original American band likes of which is kinda hard to come by nowadays.I honestly have no idea how to describe music on this disc,AVANTGARDE in capital letters is closest I can come up with.Irregular rhytms,vocals ranging from operatic to metalic-growling to angelic,extremely technical riffs and very dark atmosphere that reminds me of King Crimson's "Power to believe",are some of main points...and then some more that simply I can't describe?!You have to hear it to get the picture,which(after few spins)is not going to be perfectly clear ,I'm sure of it.Perfect soundtrack for anyone's nightmare,this album is going to be my new favourite for many months to come.A blisstering experience!
