Just a little question: is there a reference to Marillion in the "The Artist, The Sage, and The Jester" song?
As for the music, the sound is very good. Indeed it reminds me of Dream Theater (even though I would not say it's really similar). Good sound, good music.
Sadly i'm not a fan of this kind of music. So I won't rate it because if I rate the quality it gets a high one, and if I rate based on personnal interest, it gets a low one. Sorry about that.
