This album was such a shock back in the day. When people first bought it they immediately thought it would be just your stock prog rock with maybe little psychedelics but instead they got something of an experimental album with a mix of more metal-oriented sound and heavy use of synths. At the end of the day it's not just a great album, but might even be their best.

I think listeners were pleasantly surprised with Galahad who started as a generic neo-prog sound in the style of IQ and Fish era Marillion. Kudos to them for trying out new things. I like this album (and Battle Scars). Now I want to make time for a listen.

I didn't know Galahad were on MS. I'm happy to see them here.
