Overall, a great album and one of my favourites from the Everly Brothers." Reply

"Arguably the best metal album released in the past 25 years. It can be quite impenetrable to some though with how nuts it is at times which is understandable. It's quite all over the place and yet somehow still manages to flow like the ocean in it's notion to play out as a single, carefully calcu..." [+] Reply
