Album Notes & Community Reviews

Centered around a sprawling, sixteen-minute conceptual suite depicting the rise and cataclysmic fall of the mythical sunken city, this album marks the absolute zenith of the band's symphonic ambitions. Gerard Koerts' ubiquitous Mellotron layers beautifully complement Jerney Kaagman's dramatic vocal delivery, establishing a cornerstone of Dutch progressive rock.
