    Any chance of a Hi Resolution version? Did you record and mix in 24 bit?

    I haven't been able to find this at my usual places like Laser CD. Amazon says it's a 3 week wait. Has there been a delay?
    So much music....so little time....

    I believe they are on their way to the US... give it a week or so.

    This album is available on LaserCD.com, but only as a "Mini-LP with Sleeve." That means vinyl, right? Is a CD version going to be available?

    A Mini-LP (or Mini-LP Sleeve) is a CD, where the packaging is made to be a miniature replica of what a full-size vinyl LP sleeve would look like.

    So, it's definitely a CD, if that helps at all.

    It's really nice. "Tigers" is the best song in my estimation.

    I finally had a chance to listen to this one. Really nice classic-style prog. Without a doubt, one of the best of 2017.

    Mine too. I wasn't 100% sold on the vocals in that one, reminds me 'Still It Takes Me By Surprise' by Tony Banks where the vocals are a bit rough compared to the beauty of the music. But they did grow on me, and that is a beautiful composition. A lot of great moments in 'The Perfect Black' too, it gets almost grating at times, but then suddenly these beautiful chords and intriguing melodies emerge. Nice album overall, with some songs that stand out, most notably 'Tigers'.

    Edit: I really like both group instrumentals on the album in fact. This will likely end up in my top 5 for the year. We shall see, of course, but I'd be surprised if it didn't at this point

    Do not like the bandname, hate the artwork but apart from that one of the best retro-prog albums I've heared in a while.

    Do you think the cover artwork is badly done, or is it just not to your taste?

    Sure, the band name is silly, but the artwork on all their albums is some of the best I've ever seen.

    Not my taste at all. Someone has gotta tell that Unitsky that in many cases less is more. In his case A LOT less.
    Maybe this cover is one of his least ugly ones, but still ugly.
