Once again, PAIN OF SALVATION manage to create some of the most moving and beautiful music I've heard in while. In fact, the last time I heard something that good was their album 'The Perfect Element', which still remains my favourite album even though this is a very very good album.

It is once again a concept piece, I understand it's about creation and nature. The music fits this perfectly, and PAIN OF SALVATION display a much more folky side, which they pull off wonderfully. But of course, there's a heavier side to the album that again sounds brilliant, suiting the mood of the album perfectly. In fact, the riff on Breaching the Core sends chills down my spine. But anyway, POS take this sound and again make it their own, sounding like no one else. I also have to hand it to the Orchestra of Eternity for contribution - it adds a whole new depth to the album, which makes it sound even better.

Although this album is very good and recommended to anyone with good musical taste, I still think THE PERFECT ELEMENT, PART I is the better album - I just prefer that heavy/emotional mix. But still, highly recommended, and yet another great album by POS. Buy it now!
