I really love this album, its one of the best albums I've ever heard and this is a very special band for me. Riverside is really a perfect band for me, only comparable to Anathema and Porcupine Tree when it comes to what they make me feel.
On that note, and because music is about feelings for me, I would give it a perfect 10. |

It's really hard to say which is better album: this or Out Of Mysef. The only thing I can say is there are propably more Dream Theater -like elements in this album (Out Of Myself sounds more unique to me)...
This is a great album. It won't please everyone, but even more of those who are in to this kind of music. It propably won't open to you fully until after a few listens, but you can instantly tell this music has got that special atmosphere and sound that you'll remember after a very long time...
Highlights: "Conceiving You", "I Turned You Down", "Second Life Syndrome" and "Dance with the Shadow" |

dream theater. but they are not bad, even Volte-Face is fuckin good song and i listened to it 4 times this day. but they are not new and i think top 100 is for albums with new qualities. kind of avant garde |

I think they are quite peculiar in their sound as a band. So, I must disagree with you  |

Stolen riffs and melodies from Dream Theater??!! You'd better have some arguments with your opinions honestly. I might agree if you say "influences", but NOT stealing. I also disagree the vocalist is copying Vincent Cavanaugh (hope I spelled his name right, or I'll fix it later). Riverside has a littlle bit of Anathema influences, and maybe a little bit of Porcupine Tree.
But let's stop dissecting so much, we'll spoil any enjoyment whatsoever and Riverside frankly deserves the attention. |

Good album indeed....their best songwriting was in this album as i hear ever changing melodies in their song.
but 4 me they are just rock band..miss heaviness in this album. |

| I see Riverside as a perfect progressive band that mixes influences from various schools but never gets stuck into one particular style, which is the reason i love this band. Out of Myself was simply mindblowing and then this masterpiece came and changed the perception. An equally brilliant album this is. Its just a great piece of art...!!! |

I read your comment and realized that Riverside must be the most original prog band out there. They just don't sound like anyone else. There is a very unique combination of atmosphere and aggression, guitar style and songwriting that is truly original. |

Exactly, they strive very hard to maintain their originality and it seems to work pretty well. Even there's a lot of degree of variation in their albums. Each sounds unique in its own right. |

| Yes Riverside are unique enough to have earned themselves a position as a point of comparison people use to describe the sound of other bands. That's a level of recognition not many bands can ascend to. |
