In a few words:
This Polish band came out of nowhere in 2003, and with this excellent debut made a lot of noise in the prog rock/metal fans all over the world. The album balances between prog metal (in riffs) and rock (in solos), while it is simultaneously very atmospheric. In its heavy moments it reminds me Pain Of Salvation, while in the quite moments, and especially at solos, I detect a Pink Floyd influence.

Personal highlights:
"Out Of Myself", "Reality Dream" and "OK"
