Pros:
Lead guitar is, unsurprisingly, expressive and intricate, being complemented by the bass and drums exceptionally well
Songwriting is restrained and tasteful enough to keep the album catchy and accessible, reining itself in for some fun riffs and hooks
Expands into a great range of genres and moods, exploring rock, metal, blues and more
Production, while hardly exciting, is well-balanced and clear
Cons:
Some melodic hooks can feel a little derivative at times
Some tracks are a little unnecessarily overextended, adding to the fatigue from endless guitar sweeps
Best: Temple Of Circadia
Worst: Happy Song
8/10 Mark of a legend
