For:Fans of modern progressive rock, melodic prog listeners, Spock's Beard followers, instrumental-enthusiast listeners

 “Spooky Action at a Distance” is one of the best works of the past year, another brilliant example of modern and flashy prog that isn’t enslaved by its past.

 Honestly, “Only Passing Through” is not just any album (neither was “Prehensile Tales”), it’s not another nostalgic prog whim as there are thousands, it’s not the kind of album you consume for a month and forget, it’s an example of fresh music made of very well-combined influences.

 A truly brilliant work, with an exceptional quest for sounds and impeccable production.
