He took a bit from here and a bit from there from various 70s prog groups, adding in several more personal ideas and creating something that, while derivative, doesn’t sound like anything you’ve heard before! Truly amazing; I don’t know how many could pull it off!

The perhaps most complete album in their catalog, not a song alike another, from the lengthy and symphonic-tinged track to the more upbeat one, from the piece centered on acoustic guitar to the one focused on drums, moving through the one centered on bass...

There’s little to be done; I think it should be appreciated precisely for its almost overwhelming pompousness! Not appreciating its pomposity is almost equivalent to renouncing the nature of progressive music, which often aims to be pretentious! It’s a bit like loving cooking and not appreciating a hearty cake! Okay, the four suites may not flow as smoothly as in the previous three albums, but progressive isn’t exactly meant to be fluid!

    But it's bullshit that progressive music aims to be unfluid and pretentious. Pretentious and unfluid are two major flaws in any composition, so I doubt that prog musicians set out with the idea of composing poorly. Stuff like "The Musical Box" or "Starless" or "Lemmings," no matter how complex, structured (which are different from "pretentious") and lengthy, are fluid (unless Prog as a style and concept really sucks). They are incredibly fluid because they are great compositions, overflowing with ideas. This album is unfluid, watered down, and pretentious, and those are not compliments. This album, not Progressive music.

    In the sense that fluidity is not the primary concern for the composer!

    "It should be appreciated because it's pompous, intrusive, and pretentious," so according to you, prog should be appreciated because it really sucks, I guess :D joking aside, I agree with hyhyhyhy.

    Ah, and it should also be appreciated for not being fluid; I had forgotten.

    But the beauty is precisely that the best prog, the one from bands like Crimson, Genesis (yes, Genesis), Van Der Graaf, Comus, Gentle Giant, Caravan, Camel, and whoever else you can think of, is neither pompous nor intrusive nor pretentious. There is also that in prog, but it’s obvious; every genre has its downsides. It’s the first time I hear it should be appreciated for those, though :D

The sound still feels a bit "old," Tony Kaye is not yet the right man and he is not very present... but the band is already showing what they're made of after two rather forgettable albums.
