5 stars For me, Amoeba Split's latest album is a great album, probably the best of the three they have released to date. I don't think it's relevant to categorize if it's a Canterbury record or not (labels don't matter to me) or if it's a masterpiece or not (time will tell). What is really relevant is: 1. that it withstands numerous listens without tiring the listener, 2. that the proposal is risky and courageous (tracks like "No time for lullabies" are not at all common or expected on a Canterbury album) and 3. that the record is coherent throughout its development, without being forced. All of them are reasons enough to satisfy the most demanding listener of progressive music.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there is a general consensus of this "Quiet Euphoria" by many experts in various reviews and scores given on the net: as they say in my country "if the river sounds, water carries". In any case, do not get carried away by better or worse scores: I encourage those who have not yet heard the work not to hesitate and embark without prejudice to listen to the album, it is well worth it. They will be tremendously rewarded, because this is essentially what progressive music is all about.
