I know, that's what I'm saying. I'll probably listen to it and form my opinion. I'm just not a fan of how his voice sounds on some of the recent videos/audio.

The first track (instrumentally) sounded to me like it could have been from Spiritual Machine's less interesting cousin of an album. Didn't hate it. But from there I lost interest over the next few songs and stopped listening. This was from the online premiere stream... maybe an actual rip at good quality will a little more interesting to me.

I am pretty much in love with Lost, it is a song that is fitting into everything else I've been listening to lately.

I just put the album on my ipod - I tried to listen to it all in the car but just don't seem to be in there alot at the moment. Hopefully I will get some more time with it.

Is it just me or does Awake sound like old school IME? It could just be Edwin's distinctive voice that is doing it to me, but I like it.

Just seeing "Next Life" makes me think of the chorus of IME's Raspberry.

I didn't enjoy the album. I just can't get into these guys. I've even listened to some live clips, and still can't get into them. Oh well.

There are some great musicians involved, but I also find it hard to get into... Came off kinda bland to me. Although, I somewhat enjoy Fight.

That was bad.

Maybe it's because I don't really like the song and adding cheap animation to it didn't help it.
