5 stars well well well lets start off by saying this has been the best album since Awake I really like the way they did this in scene format. I thought it was an excelent idea that they did it in past present form.

Can you say Queen? Wow in Final Tragety. The Verse just screamed Queen to me. and then it had a breakdown with ruddess doing this organ sounding part and then JP comes in with the queen sound. sent chills down my spine.

sweet opening parts in Home. Acoustic and sitar sounds made a good blend then comes the wah wah which came in perfectly.

Instrumentals: Oveture was an awesome peice from hoping to Metroplis part 1 to Take the Time to other parts and some solos blew me away

The Dance Of Eternity was in my opinion one of their best instrumentals next to Stream Of Conciousness (from Train Of Thought) later in the years. This has an excelent blend of JP and ruddess and Portnoy and Myung.

The only thing i was kinda irritated by was in Final Tragety, the ending riff was extremely repetitive. thats the only bad thing i have to say about this album
