The label obviously wants to compare this band to King Crimson and Dream Theater but to tell you the truth they do not remind much of any of these two prog giants. This is much more difficult music, more complex and less fluent and personally I don't quite grasp what they are trying to achieve. It seems like they are a little bit too ambitious for their own good on this record and the music tend to pull in several different directions at the same time which becomes distracting after a while. There is a little bit too much of an indie pop feeling over both the music and the vocals from Pete Beck. You can hear a lot of different sounds but nothing really happens and no song can be easily distinguished from another. Not a bad first attempt but they need to find a sharper identity and add more structure to their song writing.
