Description/Reviews
It is an accessible variety of the style the band have opted to go for here, with frequent shifts into hard progressive rock and occasional lapses closer to progressive metal as well, but with plenty of space and room given over to more careful, atmospheric laden and even pastoral passages along the way. Even with multiple alterations of pace, intensity and arrangements in a song the compositions stay accessible and uphold an easy to listen to mode of delivery throughout. An album to seek out by those who tend to be engaged by progressive rock that by and large is more accessible in nature, and who knows how to treasure a band that also venture into hard progressive rock territories.
