Excellent song writing.

This album is extremely well written. The vocals are emotional, not technical, similar to Pink Floyd, which makes this music create a very special feel. I needed about 5 tries on this album before it sunk into me and now it's one of my favourite albums out of modern music.

All his lyrics are of a Christian nature, all albums are concept albums about how he found religion and quit his other bands to follow his religious path trough music, life and so forth- This very album is therefore filled with biblical quotes and texts. Some people have problems with this, but not me. And even if I did have problems with biblical stuff, it could never be good enough of an excuse to ignore this album.

All songs are part of what makes the whole album so magnificently unique. Neal uses elements from Progressive Rock to Symphonic Prog to create an almost magical feel with a twist. Almost magical, since not even magic is a word good enough to describe the good feeling his music is able to produce with this true energetic masterpiece.

Might take some time to get into, but once it bites, it'll never let go.
