This album has all of the elements that I tend to like in music, prog or otherwise: well-composed tunes, interesting chord changes that keep me anticipating what's coming next, tasteful choices in keyboard timbres, a balance of guitar textures that includes acoustic 12-string and melodic electric as well as some "grit", thought-provoking lyrics, and a talented vocalist with a pleasing voice and a sense of nuance. Bill, you should be proud. This is an outstanding piece of work!
