5 stars This is a widely discussed album, and sincerely I'm not sure how many people will pay attention to my review (for u can find over 300 here!!) but I just have to say that this is the album that got me into the prog world by letting me explore a different kind of music... far away from all the conventionalisms and dullness that were around the music I heard back in the year 2001... I think this is one of the best prog-metal albums ever recorded.. it has IMO good lyrics, a great concept, extreme technical skill (yes, I know that is not everything, but it surely helps achieving great music!!), and an awesome ending as finally free...

Even though a lot of people find this album boring, I think it's too good... And I'll always be grateful with it for helping me discover a lot of other great bands out there... I think everyone should have this in their collection in their "prog metal" section because this is one of the most representative modern albums of prog metal and prog music and no collection should be considered complete without a little bit of good metal in it! go get this and pay close attention to each of these compositions specially the overture, beyond this life and the mind blowing dance of eternity...5 stars
