4 stars Another great KC album. Very interesting line -up: KC Mk.II line-up ( Fripp/Bruford/Belew) is added with Trey Gunn and Pat Mastelotto of future KC line-up! Real transitional album!

Music is more rock and more progressive in comparence with 3 previous studio works. But the combination of melodism and some soft sound + new wave rhythms with metal heavyness and prog complexity makes this album very attractive!

Dinosaur,Walking On Air and Sex,Sleep,Eat,Drink,Dream all are perfect! As usual, Fripp and Co. testing new direction and find it right! Later band's studio albums ( with Fripp,Belew and newcomers) are more rock, heavy and sometimes "dirty", but brings a new life in bands history again!

Very recommendable album for all KC fans and any prog lover - just to hear how sounds one of the greates prog bands ever in mid-90!
