Don?t know how I let this one slip through the cracks for 15 years but I?m glad I rediscovered. One of the better releases for this type of rock/metal

3.5 greatBritch2tiger | December 1st 16

Slightly better than Ra's From One album but not quite as good as Acroma's Orbitals album (in terms of instrumentations). Also, the vocals are pretty impressive (for both the hard rock and nu-metal genres). Still a ways off from being an excellent-worthy album [classified as an "original/unique" album of the genre], but still reveals impressive musicianship nonetheless.

4.5 superbDaTwig | January 21st 07

It is hard to say all the good things this band does. Excellent musicianship all around, and they're fronted by a powerful vocalist. Their songs convey a lot of emotion, from the guitar solos to the haunting vocals, and to the strings and piano that are used sparingly throughout the album. Excellent songwriting as well, whether it's the heavier songs like "Nothing Sacred," the acoustic songs such as "Begginnings," or the hauntingly beautiful songs such as "Stare," Memento manages to keep things interesting. This is evident on the album's closer, the thirteen-minute epic, "Figure 8" which contains acoustic guitars, piano, guitar solos, and even a cello solo and they manage to fit all of that together so well you won't realize the song you're listening to is nearly thirteen minutes long
