Yeah, well done indeed. You certainly analysed it well, with plenty of references and certainly information I couldn't put my hands on (I don't have a physical copy of the disc, which it seems you do). But my own review, both in my journal and in the PRAC contest your claim that the music is sterile and cold. I don't find it so at all. An interesting review and much different to mine I must say.

If you're planning to get into BBT after this I'd recommend, in order, "Bard", "From the river to the sea" and "Gathering speed", followed by "Goodbye to the age of steam" and then "The underfall yard", to get a better overall idea of what the band are like.

Oh, and I agree with US: "Don't look back" was a big disappointment after the s/t and only "Third stage" restored my faith in Boston...
