This is the best album I have bought in months! Imagine: Slayer's hardedge meeting Jethro Tull’s experimentation style with the musical aptnessof Liquid Tension Experiment all bundled up so tightly its nearly asingularity. It delivers some of the finest Drumming (provided by AdelMoustafa) I have heard since Mike Portnoy. A very rewarding albumindeed.
Progressive metal at its finest - magic!

This was my first introduction to the world of Devon Graves, I'd heard all the comparisons to Tool, one of my favourite bands, and being a prog metal fan, it seemed a logical choice. The music is powerful, full of some great riffs, but its Graves' vocals and lyrics (poetic theme of crows carrying the souls of the dead) that complete the picture, and what a picture it is.
The album starts wonderfully with the two parts 'Feed' piece, one of DST's finest songs to date. Everything is on display here, some simple but well executed guitar playing, highly technical drumming from the skilled Adel Moustafa, and of course haunting melodies sung to perfection by Graves' piercing vocals. 'Messenger' is one of my favourites on the album, it has a rather monotonous riff played throughout, but the vocal melodies and lyrics are just stunning, surprisingly 'feel good' for such a sinister album. 'Some Things You Can't Return' is the defining moment to the album, following the themes of the lost souls concept, but its Graves' vocal delivery that simply floored me, beautiful yet penetrating. Songs such as 'Garden Made Of Stones', 'Angels In Vertigo' and 'I'm Not Waving' hold the album together perfectly. The last touch of greatness comes in the raucous 'Crows On The Wire' with its tension building intro, huge riff and catchy melodies, a certain high point.
Overall this is one fine album that doesn't get nearly enough recognition. For fans of prog rock/metal who enjoy the likes of Tool, Pain Of Salvation, Nevermore...
Also see Graves' former legendary band 'Psychotic Waltz'.

This is my favourite DST album. It has a very intense atmosphere to it. All the songs are in the same mood but not at all similar or repetitive. There are absolute beauties like Stone by stone or In a gardden made of stones. But the peak of this album is the song Some things you can`t return. Devon Graves` voice sends chills down my spine every time I listen to him say "houses have a memory" during the song I mentioned. I love the whole sound of the band. Again, dark and magic!
