	I say "both" because I rate them fairly evenly even though they are very different from each other. Intrigued is a great word to describe my feelings for both albums.

	Blackwater Park, The Sham Mirrors was a huge disappointment for me with none of the crazyness of La Masquerade Infernal and just all round drab.
	Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

	The Sham Mirrors, which was a smooth introduction and a great favourite album by Arcturus. I'm looking forward to their comeback album release...!
