3 stars The grubby mug-shot cover is almost a deliberate contrast with pretentiousness of Beyond Man and Time. But how is it musically? Well, its still an accessible mix of heavy prog and Pink Floyd and U2 influenced pop-prog. There's an attempt to make it sound modern by adding a dash of electronica. Lyrically it's angry, but musically rarely so.

It's more of a summing-up of the band's strengths kind of album rather than a leap forward. But if you think you could weasel out of listening the entire catalogue by getting just this, I'd still recommend listening the back catalogue. Because for all their good ear for melody, there's no song here that would stand out, like Silenced on RPWL Experience, for example, or the entire Beyond Man and Time.
