Band is highly experimental, really complex and accessible at the same time thanks to their gorgeous melodies. They're so unique and have a strong discog. All their albums up to 'Interview' are essentials to any prog collection. Oh, and they're an acquired taste =P

The album is great, but the cover looks suspicious. What's this tongue going to lick?

Yeah Greg, of course. At first glance, it's a cover art of bad taste haha. I for myself have this on vinyl and trust me, I didn't have any time to insinuate anything cause you can see instantly that big pear at the back of the cover.



@Jamie; I'm glad to hear it, really.

As I said at the 1st page;



''It's easy to do a sexual innuendo when looking at the cover art, but if you opened the cd, what you'd see is in fact a juicy pear rather than an ass''

Hmm, did not see. I'm sure it was intended to make people wonder anyway, so pretty funny on Gentle Giant's part.

Yeah it was most definitely intended. What is quite intriguing (The review mentions it as well) is that it looks like a small ass. Other than that, it'd be all fine.
