From music side little better than LP before. Mayor and his daughter Lucy story is also better than arachnophobia but far to Abigail and Them/Conspiracy.

Always liked this one, both the music and how the story is told. I don't think it's as good as I used to as I feel it's a bit unfocused in many of the songs in the middle, there's probably a 10 minute that could easily be cut away. My favourite part of the album is the solo part in I Am, love it.

This is my favorite KD record after the magnificent three (Abigail, Them and Conspiracy). Very catchy, varied and still heavy!
