4 stars This record has 2 epic songs, and it lasts nearly one hour! It is REALLY full of melodic keyboards and percussive sequenced beat. The intro on "Livemiles 1" sounds like a modern version of the intro on "Watcher of the skies" from Genesis' Foxtrot! A keyboards part even sounds a bit like the spacy moog solo on "Shine on your crazy diamond"!

The overall sound is rather like on "Alchemy of the heart", from the Tyger album. Some pretend it is a dance music album and it has a punchy beat like Madonna's music. Although the sequenced beat is proper to make people dance, the tracks are complex and not repetitive enough to talk about dance music. Actually, I find the tracks really progressive. Froese's electric guitar is really discreet. The tracks are full of rhythmic and melodic keyboards, and despite it lasts almost one hour, the listener passes through it without any problem.
