Returning triumphantly from a massive, 13-year hiatus, the Belgian avant-prog legends deliver a suspenseful, meticulously composed instrumental masterclass. The complex, highly demanding interplay of bassoons, oboes, and traditional rock instrumentation revives their signature ominous, gothic-tinged chamber-rock sound with flawless execution.
