The album opens the engaging chug of The End Of Every Song and the guitar-led Try And Try Again and then follows those up with the free flowing Child Of The Moon, the synth-beholden Paleozoic Eons, the prog rocker Guild Of Temporal Adventurers, the train track-imbued AOR of You Have Learned (To Love The End Of Time), and then come the low slung, yet gently driven All Is Well and the spoken word Paradise Wings In Flight.
Along next is the propulsive Your Message Of Doom and the Asian-hued AOR found within It Is Everything and they are in turn followed by the drum-led rock of Building A Bad Scene, the synth-driven Sanctuary, the sculpted Chances Our, and then come the 70’s-esque sounds that reverberate throughout The Price We Pay, the countrified Second Thoughts, the recording closing on the impassioned Don’t Concern Yourself With The End Of The World and the all-embracing sounds that ebb and flow within Each Vehicle Has Two Eyes.
