Album Notes & Community Reviews
Continuing their remarkable post-hiatus creative streak, the Pennsylvania ensemble delivers a dense, highly intricate progressive rock offering. Characterized by labyrinthine song structures, prominent vocal harmonies, and remarkably fluid, melodic guitar and keyboard interplay, the album stands as a complex, cerebral piece of modern symphonic rock.
