Timeline

"The debut is a much more overt homage to the peak of prog and canterbury, but with an energy that it's membership often didn't bring to their work in The Flower Kings. Naturally derivative in nature it nevertheless has a point of difference about it." (bartyMJ, A, )
"Three different sequences strung to a chain of fantastic compositions, creative masters Andy Tillison and Roine Stolt plus experienced companions are successful in contradicting the album title with ease, still my band favourite." (Rivertree, A, )
"An absolutely amazing album which I have loved since the first listen back in 2003. Definitely a must for fans of Roine Stolt and the Flower Kings." (rushfan4, S, )
