I can't believe how much I love love love this album. Seven 5-star songs! Immaculate, clean and warm production. Tight rhythm section, great keyboards, flurries of sax, and the odd bit of playful guitar. Both vocalists perfect. A masterful composition in Rudy, brilliant melodies in Dreamer and Hide in your Shell, great key solos in School, Bloody Well Right and the title track. Asylum is one of the most heart-wrenchingly emotional pieces of music set to tape, yet not a cliche in sight. The concept; it's not quite clear, but we know there is one, I love the mystery, the way the meaning can change for different people. The band actually get on as well. It shows. Masterpiece.

that song is heartwretchingly beautifull, that song is one of the most forgotten gems in rock

Dreamer, the second best song they ever wrote.

It's the worst on the album, but still a 4-star song, and better than most AOR bands' entire careers!

And it's essential to the album's concept, so I'm perfectly happy with it being in there.
