2 stars So what happened here? Nektar meets Nazareth or something?

This album has by far the worst sound of any Nektar album in my opinion. It's too electronic and digital, much less warm and human than usual. The songs are not bad, but definitely not great. "Where Are You Now" and the two "Book Of Days" that close the album are the best songs, and this is a strange feeling; it sound like a 2 stars album at the beginning, but it becomes a solid 2.5 stars at the end.

When I look back at the very respectable discography of Nektar and I only find one album worst than this (The Prodigal Son), then I can't give it more then 2/5. Generally forgettable.
