TESTIMONY

The burst of creativity by Neal Morse in the first years of the new milenium was phenomenal, not only was it large by quantity but he turned everything he touched into gem, be it his V and Snow albums with Spock's Beard, two fantastic Transatlantic albums and yet he scrapped enough from his creativity bottom to craft an inspired double album like this. Not surprisingly, his first progressive album sounds close to his tenure with Transatlantic for which he served as the primary composer, save for guitar licks by Stolt. Morse's first album after religious converting is very personal and more emotional than a usual prog-rock album. Hats off to Morse for creating such a delicate and sophisticated body of work and also executing many duties on his own. I like his sense of melody and passion, versatile keyboard playing and a limited but passionate vocal.

The best thing about Neal Morse that he delivered consistently excellent albums for at least next ten years (except the few pop/rock and cover albums). You should give this masterpiece a chance irrespective of your religious beliefs.
