lyrics on this can be a bit... cheesy, i guess. That issue for me was dealt with on albums following this though. Solid stuff overall.

Probably one of the best and most 'necessary' re-releases I've heard. The funny thing is, most other remasters I can kind of agree that the original could use some work, but I always thought this was perfect as it was until I heard the new version.

Yeah. Back in 2013 Ha ha.



Fully revamped, remixed, remastered, and featuring a bonus track, this special edition contains:



- All keyboard sounds updated, plus brand new keyboard arrangements on many songs.



- Inside The City of Glass with additional vocals (originally intended for inclusion on the album in 2003).



- The b-side Wait Outside.



- Completely new artwork by Travis Smith (based on the original album art themes).

This is still my favorite of their discography, but "Night Is the New Day" and "The Great Cold Distance" are definitely close behind.

Okay this is really growing on me, never really got into this compared to the newer albums but this has really good atmosphere. The heavier moments sound great too, I think this might indeed be better than the re-release due to the heavier guitar sound

Personally I hate the remixed version, it sounds so overproduced and it's barely any less compressed
