4 stars This album has a fun and interesting flow to it to keep the listener engaged. It starts slow but then picks up, just to slow down again but before it becomes to slow, it picks right back up. Very easy to stay engaged with it from start to finish. In this concept album, each song is written around a journal entry from a young man who chronicles his emotional journey of reminiscing his past. Sounds like someone who blocked out a lot of childhood memories, but is now wanting to face whatever demons he has lived with for too long. Hence the ups and downs in the moods of the songs. A great mix/blend of fast, slow, droning, heavy and light melodic.

A nice mix of instrumentation as there are clearly a lot of keyboards used on this album, but many nice acoustic instruments (cello, acoustic guitar and drums) as well as thick distorted electric guitar.

The whole album runs for just under 1 hour, and it keeps the listeners interest all the way through. Would highly recommend to any listener.
