4 stars Yes, very good. Nice to see a quality prog album in this day and age of punk and alternative rock. It does compare to the bands of the 70s. Hints of Pink Floyd and King Crimson are evident: 'The roulette dares' is a great example where you will notice a Fripp riff and other moments of complete electronic chaos and experimenting will remind of both bands.

The best single aspect of this band is their style. The Latin beat is amazing; it makes the music fast and energetic but yet they are very versatile, being able to be quiet and slow.

The best song of the album is 'Eriatarka'; the lyrics in all of the songs, espically this one, are very amazing and psychaedelic. It will click with most prog lovers.
