5 stars Hellow fellow prog-heads!. This is my first TRANSATLANTIC review for their 2009 album, "The Whirlwind". 5 years have passed since I wrote my first review, I rushed into writing it at first because I liked the album so much - now I have listened to it all, many times, I can full-heartedly give this album 5 stars!!.... Immediately I was blown away: Portnoy's drumming amazed me - it is fast and intricate, and most importantly - melodic. The first voice that is heard after the opening Overture, is interestingly Roine Stolt's!. Neal comes in after that. My favourite piece so far, is "The Wind Blows Them All Away". I am sure this will change with time. This is, for 100% sure, a classic in the TRANSATLANTIC cannon! One person said before, "Their last song on their last CD was "Stranger In Your Soul" - how can you top that?!" - I believe they may just have here! This is definitely a masterpiece of progressive rock music! -Ben aka SkUnKaDeLiC
