2 stars As a symphonic prog fan I've never really been fond of Neo-prog (I say that every time don't I?). However this album still is pretty good, at least for a few spins.

The problem with this disc that there are no really memorable passages or parts or songs for that matter. It's all "ok" stuff that will keep you entertained for a while, but not lasting.

At first listen I really like this disc, but that should've already been an indication that things would get worse. Cos what really good prog disc is already very enjoyable at first spin? And it got worse, after every other listen I kept losing interest.

Overall to me this is glorified pop with a not so great vocalist and with very weak presence of guitars.

Not recommended unless you really like neo prog because it will probably bore most proggers withing a few spins.
