5 stars alright lets start of by not comparing this to past records (IANDW, SCENES FROM A MEMORY) yes they kicked major ass but we donīt need to argue over the fact that Octovarium is better or worse than those 2. This an extremely talented band.

anyway this is well blended album with its heavy side and its more syphonic side. I found that it was a good mixture or both. u2, Pink Floyd, and Muse seemed to be highlights in some of these songs i liked it

i wouldnīt recomend this for a first time listener of DT. But if you are more of the metal head go listen to Six Degrees or Train of Thought. Images and words is one of their best to but i will not compare.

by the way ruddess can and will blend in with the band
