"Probably the most ridiculous rock operas you'll ever hear, this album takes you on a pretty awesome ride as you explore themes of religion and the concept of God." Reply
"Amazing, one of the best soundtracks of one of the best video games of all time... Amazingly Drowny, Evolvingly intense atmosphere, great interludes from mixed genres (Like Trip Hop ( "Heaven's Night"), Alternative Rock ("Promise") styles)... always mixing with the intense dark plot of the video ..."

"This record is gorgeous. A post rock, downtempo, and triphop record that gets to me. Love the atmosphere these songs make. In the far reaches of space or in the distant tundra on a deserted planet, this record gets to me perfectly." Reply

"I'm in the middle of thinking that this is a work of genius and that it's self-indulgent. Aesop Rock is definitely one of the greatest artists in hip-hop, but this is way too long "Daylight" is a classic though, fantastic song." Reply

"Some weak lyrics here and there and some slightly generic metal riffs, but the instrumentation and vocal delivery are gorgeous. Not a masterpiece, but a good enough symphonic metal album. Mother Earth and Never-ending story are the highlights for me." Reply
