5 stars I don't think I have ever heard a collection of songs that gets ones blood boiling like this one. "High Moon" and "Intergalactic Space Crusader" are two powerful forces of tonality that any prog listener should hear in their lifetime, combining heavy Deep Purple-esque organs with chilling chorals and destructive guitar. This is certainly a must-have for the prog listener, due to the fact that this album does not fall into any particular genre. Though it is a self proclaimed space metal album, the addition of space in its classification does not meet the criteria to be put into space prog. Though it is heavy, it does not fit the description of metal because it is more proto-prog than metal. Yet, it most certainly is prog in full form and therefore cannot be a "proto." Similarly, it dodges classification in any other genre as well, making it as unique an album as any on this website. Prog listeners value unique music that sets itself apart from the norm or popular, and therefore this is a must listen and should own to any prog collection out there.
