4.5 superb | jkr5001 | January 28th 15 | Album is an absolute monster and sets the bar even higher for Aussie prog. "Keeping Stone: Water Awake", "Unturning", and "Keeping Stone: Sound on Fire" are my highlights so far, but every song is good, which is a huge feat across 2 hours + of music.

3.5 great | Robert Garland STAFF | January 25th 15 | Shits on your Periphery Juggernaunt slam-feat. The boys from Australia take the who double album theme to the next level.

3.5 great | PistolPete | October 6th 16 | First half: A solid 4-4.5/5 and an astounding piece of prog rock. Second half: 2-2.5/5, the acoustic side comes off as boring and diluted and would've maybe suited a shorter EP but really drags down the far superior first half.

3.5 great | ChildOfHate | March 15th 16 | This album illustrates quite clearly why Double Albums are almost always a bad idea. The first disc, "Known" is stellar, while the second one, namely, "Learned" is quite possibly the most meandering, directionless, unnecessary piece of music ever created as part of a Double Album.

3.5 great | fantalas | August 2nd 19 | Wait there's another band with Jim Grey? And they are pretty great? Why I haven't heard of them earlier?

3.5 great | Britch2tiger | April 16th 16 | Another Aussie act that doesn't disappoint, esp on this album. The vocals are near superb for anyone interested in vocals as that of Rishloo or Transience. The instrumental work though reminds me of the hard rock variation that occasionally alternates their time signatures w/ dashes of improv. It works for this album but certainly not in the realm of being the next imitated act in the music realm. A VERY high 3.5/5 rating but comes very short of being in the 4-spectrum...

3.5 great | Alex C. | January 15th 16 | Falling out of reach, Arcane try the concept route while missing the experience to write a coherent and clear story.

3.5 great | TheManMachine | March 22nd 15 | What originally sounded like stale shlock eventually transformed into pleasant polish, and I got past the leviathan length and shaky concept - partly from taking it one disc at a time, but mostly because, well, the songs are great, even if 90% of them are overlong. Their classily restrained prog rock weaves from the softest of soft acoustics and piano to soaring mellotron symphonics to the heavy stuff with fluidity and expertise, the lack of production-gimmickry is admirable, and of course the vocalist: a sappy and skillful beaut indeed, whose range can take him from genteel+angelic falsetto to triumphant+shirtless mountain man yell.
