 The hardest part of this album is overcoming the shock provoked by the sight of the group's photo, which looks like it came straight out of an Iron Maiden nightmare.

 The best track? Definitely 'Communion,' a reinterpretation of Béla Bartók in ethnic sauce.

While it shows some dated elements, the violin work of Dave Arbus stands out, especially on tracks like 'Isadora' and 'Communion.'
