Pros:

Unbelievably progressive and experimental, packing in numerous exotic scales, mind-bending time signatures and bizarre effects while remaining surprisingly cohesive

Performances are masterful and perfectly integrated, weaving complex guitar parts and superhuman together perefectly

Massively conceptual and psychedelic, balancing thought-provoking concepts against intense emotional depth

Cons:

Vocals, standalone, aren't the strongest in the genre

Meanders momentarily in a couple spots

Best: The Czar: Usurper / Escape / Martyr / Spiral

Worst: Ghost of Karelia

10/10 A spiritual journey
