4 stars It's strange to review their albums retrospectively, but why not, after all. And I also like night more than day. But, one must say that there's something magical about imagination of you, sitting in garden, letting late afternoon sun rays shine on you, as shown in Afternoon Conversation. And again (or more like for the first time, or for third time - disadvantage of not knowing previous), slow-fast paced songs changes in unique, Beardfish way. Probably epic-like, Roulette is catalyst of this album. Shows everything needed (even humor in the end), for example the most prominent thing, because of which I like Beardfish so much. Insane variety of songs, which were created in the mind of madman. Skilled madman though (take that as no offense please, one friend of my once said to me, that I'm like madman covering behind calm face. I think that eyes betrayed me), because this is something so unique, that not much music is able to hit this goal. Being melodic and pleasant to listen, but also non predictable & intriguing, challenging at once.

4(+) for some deaf moments, but after all, who cares when there's the rest.

EDIT: It's not so attractive as later two albums, not so interesting. It is, a lot to be exact, but not so much. Four better is enough.
