This is the highlight of Fates Warning's career after the departure of Aresti and DiBiase. There's no lack of technicality or melody, and every musician on this album plays his part perfectly, complimenting the others at the same time (especially Kevin Moore and Joey Vera). The pieces themselves are all beautifully composed by the genius that is Jim Matheos. There are numerous time changes, addictive melodies, and powerful lyrics that evoke emotions of all sorts. Highly recommended.
