I'm not super amped about it or anything, I just find it a refreshing take on contemporary prog. compared to the dozens of Pendragon and Flower Kings clones that have been popping up in the last decade. Carrying on a symphonic tradition is one thing, but when you start hearing two completely different bands sounding exactly the same....you know there's an issue.

As for my comment on the coldness; I was referring to the stark production contrasted against the music (which is rather warm/melodic as you said).
