5 stars This is probably as good as an album can possibly be. Gentle Giant is surely an amazing band. From the very first note, to the very last there isn't a dull moment, "filler" is not term which Gentle Giant is familiar with. The virtuosity of these multi-instrumentalists is evident but without resulting in blatant show off, there's much more focus on the instrumental interplay rather than individual solos. The way the compositions are put together is nothing less than brilliant, the way different melodies and constant time changes within songs are combined without resulting in a "messy" composition, but on the contrary, a very tight, precise cohesive piece of music is simply fantastic. The title track is perhaps the track out of 6 amazing possibilities I prefer the most.
