Loving the album, The Weave is incredible! Lanternlight and Yesterwynde are also fantastic. I've enjoyed all their albums and this one is no exception.

One of my most anticipated albums. My top 3 tracks are The Antikythera Mechanism, Spider Silk, and The Weave.

Kind of reminds me of an Endless Forms and Dark Passion Play lovechild, which I am here for.

I really enjoyed this album . It's on repeat , especially:

•the weave

•antikythera mechanism

•the children of 'ata

•lanterlight

It's a nicel listen but I'm not a fan of the direction the band (or Tuomas in particular) took after Dark Passion Play, every album feels like a metal opera now, which isn't bad per se, though I find it hard to connect to individual songs, especially when they're as long as The Greatest Show on Earth. Still, there's something about this that'll probably make me revisit it later. Floor sounds good, I never really had a horse in the vocalist battle as all three have their strengths, and I'm curious about Anette's solo stuff.
