Widely considered the absolute creative zenith of the British neo-progressive rock movement, the album is defined by its soaring, highly theatrical guitar solos and massively layered symphonic keyboards. Nick Barrett's highly emotional, conceptual songwriting is flawlessly supported by pristine production values and intricate, sprawling musicianship. It stands as a definitive, highly celebrated masterpiece for dedicated fans of 1970s-style progressive grandeur.
