I've never heard a stronger debut album before. If a band like Dream Theater or Haken released an album like this, it would be easily one of their best. It's so well mastered and mixed you might think it IS a Dream Theater or Haken album, were it not for the incredible vocals of Phillip Rich that set it apart. It's not just the incredible vocals either; the guitar, bass, and drums are all so phenomenal, you'd think they've been doing this for 50 years already. There isn't a weak song on the whole album, its a pleasure to listen to from start to finish. I'd give it 6 stars if I could, and I can't wait to see what they do next.
