            █  This is probably the most pop and accessible of     █
            █  the IQ albums; with Paul Menel on lead vocals, it   █
            █  definitely sounds like the previous "Nomzamo". So,  █
            █  the IQ fan who expects complex and elaborated       █
            █  progressive songs could be a bit disappointed. So,  █
            █  you have to be prepared to hear something more pop  █
            █  here, although the progressive dimension is still   █
            █  quite present.                                      █
            █  The songs are actually accessible and very catchy:  █
            █  the compositions are fresh, cute and never dark.    █
            █  Menel's voice is outstanding!!! The record is well  █
            █  balanced: some songs are really pop, well made and  █
            █  very catchy ("Drive On", "Sold On You", "Through    █
            █  My Fingers"), while other ones are more             █
            █  progressive ("Nostalgia", "Wurensh"). The mix of    █
            █  modern varied keyboards and sought-after clean &    █
            █  slight distortion guitars a la MARILLION, combined  █
            █  to a wonderful elaborated fretless bass is very     █
            █  pleasant. Even if the drums are less elaborated     █
            █  here, they still do a great job. All the songs are  █
            █  very well made! No fillers!                         █
