content: An experiment:1. Listen to "Splendor Solis", "Edges of Twilight", "Alhambra", and "Transmission".2. Next, listen to "Triptych", "Interzone Mantras", and "Seven Circles".3. Which group of albums churns your stomach raw???Something between Transmission and Triptych occurred that radically altered the Tea Party's musical vision, but I can't begin to imagine. Nonetheless, The Tea Party is no longer a band I musically respect. "The Seven Circles" embodies a form of music that I find repugnant. The party is indeed over.This album is TERRIBLE.
