From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

THe album starts quite on a dynamic note with a bit dated vocal approach but interesting interplay going beyond hard rock. The long track is quite spacy with organ layer being omnipresent.

The long track is better than the long on the previous album as it has more labour behind. "Castle in the air" mixes guitar riffing with a light-weight Canterbury inspired singing.

Drumming is quite playful. I find parts of "Plastic girl" a bit boring in the first part until we reach a more epic second part that give opportunity for a guitar to lead melodically.

"Madhouse" has a good drive thanks to busy drumming = mad drumming?

The bonus tracks contain three live selections with a moderate sound.
