Wow...a lot of people think that this is a boring album. That really surprises me. It's pretty boring on the first time around, but you really have to pick this one up again and listen to it with an open mind. There really is nothing else like this (though David Gilmore's recently released On an Island is similar in some respects) music, lyrics, vocals and all. The backup vocals really bring the music to it's fullest potential and so do the instrumentals. Very thought provoking, really gives you something to think about. In short, this album will make you see the world for the first time. Listen twice and think doubly so. You may re-emerge a different person.
Arseman: Are you sure you listened to the album? I'm not sure what you mean by non musical sounds... maybe the intro and On The Run but thats about it. Do you consider the human voice non musical?
