The new PT album is excellent, probably the best since 'Signify'.
The whole thing hangs together well. My favourite is probably the long 'Anesthetize' track; I'm still not sure about the transition between the second and third parts, but it's not a problem.
Colin Edwin has some really great bass parts - compare this with the latest Marillion, where the bass is just root notes and way down in the mix. The drumming is superb, most of all it's interesting. Richard Barbieri's keyboards contribute a beautiful back-drop. Steve Wilson's guitar moves between overdrive and delicate solos, while his multi-tracked vocals are extremely effective.
Of my recent purchases, this is probably my favourite.
