![]() 4. Transmission Data Terminate continues the musical story; the sound is primary, the vocal phrasing, the invasive pads, hold on to some acoustic DEPECHE MODE, paradoxical; Maria Q intervenes while the air rises; 5. The Noise of Flames Crashing follows, that's also the blood prog side with the notion of the concept album and these stuck, tangled titles; voices from elsewhere, an invasive, spatial sound, between two worlds; an anathemaesque, tearful air, from the musical origin to a passage towards what we are not prepared for? In short, intensely avant-garde 6. Shiver follows, the electric piano of ANATHEMA I confirm; a ballad out of time with this piano that never ends and the muffled voice which by taking up a basic refrain provokes the lack; a long, captivating crescendo whose end is actually the beginning of 7. Axiom (reprise) with again these aggressive bell volleys, this dithyrambic bass, these layers of fat keyboards, this contained violence which makes this album a progressive must, whatever one may say; the bells return to the charge, on the memory of 'Breaking the Waves' for the Olympian, religious finale.
