Reviews:
“…the underlying theme which is Ecology and taking care of our planet; the lyrics certainly leave you in no doubt but fortunately these are wrapped up with beautifully constructed and melodic music with wonderful themes, refrains and choruses.” – rocktopia.co.uk
“…offers a symphonic, beautiful sound prog that is interspersed with all kinds of world music and jazz sounds. The songs are instrumental and produced with great attention to detail. Saxophone, flute, clarinet and violin provide extremely colorful arrangements.” – Metal1.info
“…nothing is wasted upon appearances, everyone’s talents and personalities are utilized with vivid detail; and in the end, the record is devoid of sci-fi anomalies, taking aim lyrically at a realistic worldly view of our society – and there is no tension or desperation, not being burdened by what their peers are up to. So it’s everything you would expect, living up to the challenge loudly.” – ytsejam
