4 stars tarkus is one step behind of trilogy and brain salad surgery... the problem of this album is that seems to be two different albums... the A side is magnificent, is an incredible conceptual song of 20 minutes that keeps you caught from the biginning to the end. but the B side is a lot of short songs that got no relation with the A side. anyway, there's some great songs there: bitches cristal is a great song, violent and full of rage. the only way is a beuaty and powerful song, but the second part, infinite space, is less interesting. but the songs that really ruins the B side are jeremy bender (an inoffensive ballad), and the terrible are you ready eddy?, a far west song that finishes a great album in the worst way.
