This album has it's moments, but with an album of eight songs having an average time length of six minutes, it just seems much too long to be interesting at all. OK, so the band were looking to progress their sound into unknown territories, but at the cost of this, the songs often become mediocre and not at all original. 'Embalmer' is a good example of the band's better songwriting moments, but with songs as tedious as the closer 'Sadness/Love me when I'm dead' and 'Bushpig', it seems that this album failed where it ought to have succeeded.

Man what were anvil thinking when they made this?

It has some parts, moments to be some epic work, but then again, it has big let down, in inspiration and song writing .
