Buy Now

So quite honestly I found out about this album due to a little blurb on Classic Rock presents prog where it got a 3 star review.

I bought it because I like SciFi concept albums which this is. I was hoping for a Portuguese Ayreon and that is exactly what I got.

The imagery is great from the first notes of the opening track I can picture the engines going on line for the floating world right to the end of the album where like Scenes from a Memory ends with two amazing back to back climatic songs.

ALBUM HIGHLIGHTS: The Floating World, Cheops, Returning Home.
