Title: Surprisingly Good
Product review: I bought this disc more on a hunch than anything else. The cover art was seriously cool and I was looking for some new prog rock to sink my teeth into. My hopes weren't all that high as supergroups rarely live up to their individual pasts. Sure, this group contianed a member of my beloved Dream Theater, but that was just the drummer. The rest of the group came from prog rock outfits that not as prog metal or guitar oriented.Going in with these concerns, what a pleasent journey was my first listen through the disc! This is any progressive lover's dream. Looooooong cuts where everyone gets their chops in, yet they hold together remarkably well. Nothing degenerates into showmanship for the sake of showing off and the end result is a high quality outing that should satisfy fans of any of the members' original groups (Dream Theater, Spock's Beard, Marillion, and the Flower Kings).
