Our contemporary obsession with speed has claimed control over every aspect of human life; a staggering number of men and women rush to get as much done as possible, consuming crazy amounts of caffeine and gorging fast food so they don't waste much time on their most natural of needs. The consequence is a whole civilization suffering from ADD. The time that bred a generation of metalheads who listen to several releases from different bands per day also gave birth to bands who allow you to listen to several genres at once, such as these Estonian youngsters.

What a great album everything except vocals are great, but vocalist sings just a little so that's OK, my final rating is "8.7".

Stop seeing things and people in a binary way. Everything has its own spectrum and complexity. Be patient and learn about the world.

I love this album and the moods it evokes. It is one of the better prog metal albums of the last few years. They said in their kickstarter video that they're working on a new album, which I am really looking forward to. Godspeed, X-Panda!!!

This is seriously overlooked jazzy prog gem, far from your typical Dream Theater style of progressive metal. The first few minutes might sound little underwhelming, but when the thing starts kicking ass it's all over. If it wasn't for the vocalist I would give it 10.
