I remember when this came out, and I completely forgot to buy it and then totally forgot about it. Until yesterday when I found a secondhand copy for about 4 euros.
On my first listen now.
Wow!!!
And what a cast Fish,Aneke,Sharon,Damian,Edwin, Arien,Edward,Jay.

And Clive playing some synths.
Recently saw Damien in his new post with Arena,a very good gig. Okay he's no Paul Manzi but still a great singer.

Views on this double album?

The first one I ever heard was The Human Equation, and that was recently too, only about two months ago when I found that in a secondhand shop too. And immediately fell in love with their sound.

I bought that when it came out. Still like it all these years later. A bit over the top as a concept album (aren't most?). Probably one of the best mergers of prog metal with symphonic prog.
