My personal album of 2006, a masterpeice from start to finish! Andy Edwards drumming really makes this album along with the masterfull keyboard work.
Hyperventilate is an instrumental on par with any prog track out there, along paired with the other me's funky rifts and baseline. Snowman's angelic vocals and ambience make a fantasic break into the second half of the album. The albums two big tracks black light machine and milliontown are superb conbining some of the best keyboard and guitar work ive ever heard into a climactic all out ending of the final track. Put simply an instant classic, cant wait for the release of Experiments in Mass Appeal!

Prog perfection encapsulated in one 26 minute long song. The rest of the album is amazing as well, but the final track is the absolute masterpiece that truly makes the album worth listening to.

Milliontown is a stellar progressive release, complete with a genre-defining epic.

Absolutely excellent production on this album, every minute is pure class. Fans of progressive groups like Porcupine Tree, Genesis, Dream Theater? Get this. This was actually on Mike Portnoy's top 10 albums of 2006.
One of my favourite tracks, Milliontown, was an epic. How they played it live I don't know!!
And I've just realised now that one of the guys who I went with wrote the review below me. Hi Mark!

Milliontown is the debut release by British progressive rock super group Frost*, comprising of members from Arena, Kino and IQ. However its collaborative sound is distinguishable on its own and falls somewhere between American counterparts Spock's Beard and Dream Theater. The epic twenty-six minute six segmented closer Milliontown is the album's crowning sonic achievement however Black Light Machine and the delicately performed Snowman also shine. Credited with the song writing, Jem Godfrey expresses beautifully melancholic lyrical prose, as exemplified by Snowman; "Death has done her work this morning, Cutting me back down to size, Frozen in this winter warning, Gentle in its own demise" Frost* has crafted an intelligent thought provoking work of art.

for any fan of Porcupine Tree, but with a more industrial influence...this band is for you. they create some awesome keyboard driven atmosphere with some added synth effects. the vocals dont necessarily sound like Wilson's but the style can be the same. the guitars are somewhat heavy at times, but are not used as much as the keyboard. all around this is a solid album and the only album from this band that are made up of some members of the "neo-progers" Arena. they also stole the english phone booth from PT's the Sky Moves Sideways
