5 stars The marvelous kohntark. For a long time, I haven't been able to enjoy this album. I started listening to Electric Prog, and I wasn't interested in this style of album, and I didn't have the patience to listen to it completely. However, after getting into more accessible classics like Eskaton and bondage fruit, I started to find the album interesting. Part I sounds grandiose, like the beginning of a story, which sets the motives for the rest of the narrative. After I completely chewed on the two songs on the A-side, I started listening to the B-side. And from the time I heard the second part, all the themes and emotions that the album wanted to convey came out from the tense and violent drum beat. This emotional climax continues until the end of the song. Finally, the album closes with a requiem in honor of John Coltrane. All things remain in peace. For me. this is the perfect ending of this album. Masterpiece for all prog listeners.
