<p>Just based on the band name, I was thinking death metal. Luckily, this ain't that. But it was pretty good. </p>
<p>I really enjoyed it musically. The guitar playing was very good and I also enjoyed the song writing. It held my interest all the way through the album. </p>
<p>But I didn't get Pink Floyd crossed with Rush out of it at all. As a matter of fact, what I did get out of it was Ghost. Maybe not so much musically, but that vocalist reminds me of the guy from Ghost. …</p>

The vocalist was not good.</p>

<p>Man, that album cover is hard to look at. Whoever came up with that color scheme was stoned and working under a black light. Makes me wonder if there was a limited edition printed on black velvet, hmm… in that context it would be cool!</p>
<p>Production sounds very Maiden-esque. But let’s not get lost in comparing this band to Iron Maiden it’s just the mix, not the songs or certainly not the vocals. Speaking of which, those vocals are … what’s the word I’m looking for…. Umm…. bad? Yes, but…</p>

Speaking of which, those vocals are … what’s the word I’m looking for…. Umm…. bad? Yes, but not quite right… Un-Metal? That’s it! The reviewer can’t find any reasons why this “sank from sight upon its release”. Even more puzzling is that this is a Terry Brown product. I wonder what they were going for here, there’s some progressive in the latter half of the album beginning with ‘Best Regards’ but its only 3:51 long. Golem actually did work as a progressive track, still at 4:46 its reaching and it felt like it faded out before it was over – shame on you Terry Brown! Nuage Fractal grabs my attention next and this one feels pretty cool at moments. It’s hard to get too progressive if they’re not playing it out!</p>
<p>The “heavy metal” parts are hard to hear, and I don’t get the comparison to Floyd and Rush lyrics… This is truly a puzzling comparison.</p>
<p>Give me the second half of this album beginning with the title track over the first 6. Still, there’s nothing terrible here, it just doesn’t come across as billed. <font color="red">I’ll take Golem as the RED track.</font></p>
<p>Welcome back sir!</p>
