This is the first 3RDegree album that really caught my ear. George’s soulful singing is a great pairing for this album that has some moments of drama. This album is made for music patrons that like Ayeron’s subject matter as this album is probably the best excuse for a Dr. Who plot since Genesis’s Get ’em out by Friday. The album is accessible and has some very pleasing changes for the prog lover.
Album Highlights: The Gravity, This Is the Future, We Regret to Inform You, More Life.
