"One of the greatest progressive albums that doesnt stray from being heavy but rather explores a whole new realm of soundscape. The musicianship, lyricism, and overall feel of this album is exceedingly excellent. This is a near stand alone album for this band with most material breaking 4minutes m..."  [+]  Reply

"Unusual for me to appreciate this style of music, but there's something about Tankian's delivery here that gets me into his riffs and soft/loud/soft variance. I wouldn't play this repeatedly at any time - but it's good for a listen from time to time."  Reply

"This is far better than it's dismal rating of 64 would suggest. There are 94 better albums in 2007, I think not. The title track is better every time I play it. Tracks 14 and 18 are also highlights."  Reply
