Recommended by: Marta Conlon

Metal and Prog Rock in general have not been my main area of interest. This album is very strong in all the elements of music with a diversity that keeps each moment interesting.

Unfortunately, it's a short EP.  At only 4 songs it takes you many different places. However, like BBC tv show it's easier to have 6 great episodes in a season than 23 great episodes in an ABC show. Still a worthy listen.
