Celebrating being elected to idiot were we?
Anyhoo, Iâm about to confront this proggy monstrosity armed only with a mug of tea. I expect to spill it on myself during âwithout wallsâ which I note lasts 19:15 according to TIDAL.

Is it really that long It never seems that long to me.
Having a quick skip through on YouTube.
Sorry, but there will have to be prizes given out for listening to this all the way through (did anyone mention itâs 1 hour and 42 minutes?).
Nothing fancy. ÂŁ10 M&S gift vouchers would be ideal. Something like that.
Interesting LP this. On the upside it is not as bad as Guilt Machine. I quite liked some of the keyboard washes and drones. I didnât like the incessant chugga-chugga guitar/drum riff thing that is all over this record and the vocalist is horrible. Thankfully, I couldnât make out many of the lyrics, but many of those I could decipher were exceptionally silly. I found the pomposity of it all very entertaining at times, particularly 1312 Overture which is spectacularly overblown and yet clocks in at only 4:17.
On the downside, it is nearly as bad as guilt machine and it goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on a bit.
Summary: it wasnât a complete load of jizz, but I shanât be buying it.

What a surprise. Yellow paddy doesnât appreciate good music
That is blatant racistism
Nicely done.
And Iâm not yellow any more tubster!
How dare you suggest racialistism. If you are, in fact, a normal human colour, it was simply an unfactual statement. And Iâm not fat
Youâre just Progist, man
Tru dat chunky.
What are you trying to claim here tubster
HUH ?
Rapid edit - nicely done your rotundityâŚ
It isnât as bad as Guilt machine but that is a little like comparing crabs to syphilis. Both would mean embarrassment if discovered but only one might result in hospitalisation.
I got to the end of the first âdiskâ and wondered why I had used up so much of my day off listening to it. Everything on it sounded borrowed from every prog album ever. I expect that is what their fan base expect and they would be nervous to try anything different, either with the sounds/instrumentation or arrangements. It all sounded very safe and just washed over me. Still, I did endure the whole of the bit I was instructed to listen to. If we carry on like this, in twenty twenty five I might start enjoying your choices Terry!
So thereâs hope then ?
I didnât puke, itâs a start.
The. Future. Is. Bright
Christ. I make that 3 hours 38 minutes between posts. Itâs worse than I thought.
I canât think of anything positive to say about this album - itâs repetitive, dull, pompous, derivative and unoriginal. To make matters worse, itâs a double album! Complete and utter shite. 0/5
Well, this is going as expected
