5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtaking..., June 12, 2001

This review is from: Moray Eels Eat the Space Needle (Audio CD)

I purchased this record a few years ago when it first came out. It still boggles my mind. It is such an abstract rock album, but incredibly powerful. It escapes genre definition, with many songs focusing on carefully layered guitar textures and tones. Flowers for Algernon is an exceptionally beatiful tune, gradually building to beautiful heights. The album is also graced with two Anti-Pop tunes, "Never Lonely Alone" and "Love Left us Strangers", very pop-style tunes but executed in such a raw way that it becomes an antithesis to the glossy strategic pop tunes that dominate the radio. This leaves us to simply focus on the melody and composition...There is not a bad moment on this album. This is one of the best albums you've probably never heard.

4.0 out of 5 stars Roni Sarig: Seriously?, November 19, 2006

This review is from: Moray Eels Eat the Space Needle (Audio CD)

First of all, I want to express a frustration that I have. If you write official reviews for and are employed by amazon.com, you should probably put at least some effort into your review. There is no song called "Never Lonely Again" on this album. There is, however, a song called "Never Lonely Alone." Is it that hard to look at the tracklist while you're writing, especially if you're being paid for your writing? The title of the song repeats over and over in the song, and it has a much different meaning than the incorrect title that Sarig pulls out of nowhere, which leads me to believe that Sarig didn't really even listen to the album all that carefully.

I think this is a great, underrated album, and I hope more people give it a chance.

Most of this album is excellent. I thought it was a great follow-ip to Voyager. The first song is a little rambling. I'm sorry they didn't stick together. I wonder if the Roger Dean album art was a turn-off to those who hate everything prog rock. I thought it was a bold and interesting move.
