I have sentimental feelings towards this EP.I still remember the first time i listened to it on the way to work some time in 2004 and at times laughing out loud because i was so impressed,especially with the heavy sections.This was my first DREAM THEATER experience and the 23 minute title track had me itching to hear more from these guys.This would be the first recording without Kevin Moore as Derek Sherinian makes his debut here.He's in fine form too with some heavy synth work on the title track.I must admit i'm not as enthusiastic towards the live cover songs that follow even though they do a great job overall.And that's why i understand some 3 star ratings for this because the covers make up the bulk of this album.As for me 4 stars is my rating simply for the title track alone.One of their best creations no doubt about it.A Prog-Metal journey if there ever was one.
