Πόσο, μα πόσο τέλειος είναι αυτός ο δίσκος;
όσο τον ακούω, τόσο πιό πολύ κολλάω μαζί του. Καταπληκτική κυκλοφορία και σίγουρα καλύτερο από το Out of myself.
Μέσα στα 5 καλυτερα του 2005.

[Kingryche]

Η καλύτερη "νέα" μπάντα που άκουσα μέσα στο 2005. Ο δίσκος είναι φοβερά όμορφος, το Conceiving You είναι κομματάρα όπως και όλα τα κομμάτια έχουν ουσία.

Οι Anathema του Judgement, οι Floyd (πολύ), οι Porcupine Tree και τα συναφή ακούσματα βρίσκονται περασμένα στους Riverside αλλά με αρκετά δική τους προσέγγιση.

To Out Of Myself είναι εξίσου καλό. Είναι προφανές ότι το Second Life Syndrome είναι πιο "ώριμο", αλλά και το πρώτο είναι σε παρόμοια επίπεδα.

Έχουν και ένα ενδιάμεσο EP, το Voices In My Head...

Νέο κόλλημα...

[V0lcaN0]
