5 stars What more can be said about a brilliant masterpiece like this? I think the other reviewers have got it pretty much covered, so I don't feel the need to add on to what they have said very much. Simply put, this album is brilliant, and not just that, inspiring as well. At least to me.

The four tracks work well in conveying different moods, and the sound for each can be described as hopeful (Storm), frightening (Static), nostalgic (Sleep) and... uh... well Antennas to Heaven is a bit too disjointed to really assign any one particular mood to, so I'll leave that to someone else. These are, of course, my own personal interpretations of the music, and I have heard others. Wonderful thing about instrumental music, you can percieve it any way you want.

My favorite track is Static, closely followed by Sleep. Antennas to Heaven is my least favorite, but it still manages to hold it's own.
