5 stars One day i was at a party and somebody ask me if he could put his CD of this montréal band GYBE! I said why not, go for it. After what seems like 2 hours, i ask if i could see the cover because i trough that what i was listening was incredible, i really trough i was in heaven ! It was this album and we where only listening to the first song, wow!! Only 20 minutes had passed !!!!

During the same week, i brough the album and, again, i was completely blown away by the music on this CD. Everything is great in here, but my favorite is "Static", one of the best build up song in history.

This CD for me is really a Desert Island disc. The emotions, the beauty and agressiveness are so well crafted, it's beyond words !!! And the most impressive is that there are 9 musicians playing in here, bands like Yes had trouble sometimes making album with only 5 musicians, and here in GYBE! they manage to do it with 9, impressive ;) I can understand people who don't like this album, it's not the kind of music that everyone might like but for me it is essential and can only be 5 stars.

You what to ear something completly differents, original, non conventionel ? Try this doible CD you will be in for a good surprise... So lift your skinny fists like antennas and go to heaven.
