Reviewer :  level 10   90/100
Date : 
(나는 이 앨범을 통해 Porcupine Tree, 정확하게 말해 Steve Wilson의 작곡/작사 능력이 Radiohead의 Thom Yorke와 견주는 것이 아니라 그를 뛰어 넘었다라고 확신을 하게 되었다)

끔찍한 컨셉을 가리는 아름다운 선율로 가득찬 Porcupine Tree의 7집. 멜로디는 화창한 날 기차여행을 떠나는 이들에게 어울릴 것 같지만 대표적으로 Blackest Eyes-Strip the Soul로 이어지는 곡들의 가사들은 연쇄살인, 아동성폭행, 가정폭력범 등이 나열되어있다. 하지만 적나라한 가사들을 뒤로한채 멜로디에만 집중을 하게 만드는 작품이다.

이 앨범도 무척 훌륭하나 이전에 앨범들에 비해서 그리 큰 임팩트를 잘 모르겠다

완성도가 뛰어나다. 각 곡마다 개성이 뚜렷하고 중독성이 짙다.

모든곡이 싱글로 나올정도의 퀄리티이다.

이곳의 장점은 이런거다... 여기 저기 들여다 보다가 이런 멋진 밴드를 만나게 되는 것...

Great album!!!
level 11   95/100
모든곡이 개성이 뚜렷하면서 좋다. 임펙트가 없는 것 같으면서도.. 맘에 쏙드는게 묘한 느낌.
level 21   95/100
oproti predošlým pritvrdenie, no zachovávajúc si naďalej pestrosť a nápaditosť. Štýlovo kombinujú progressive rock/metal - podarené
level 6   90/100
이들을 처음 접했던 앨범. 연주곡 'Wedding Nails'는 자주 머릿속을 맴돌만큼 인상적이다.
