I heard the entire album, as it was fully broadcasted on a Dutch radio station (with interviews of Veronica in between), and at first listen it is a very good album. Runner up for a top 5 of 2011 I think !!

Donwloaded and listened.

They haven't sold out or really weakened, but to me their first two efforts crush this one easily. They wanted to add some prog elements and they didn't work really good for me specially on 'Epsilon'. 'Bang' is probably the most Benedictum-by-numbers song of the album.

I dig it so I'm gonna buy it, but I was expecting a bit more after the first two.
