First and formost, this album is an excellent follow-up to the Wiretap Scars (WTS) album. Its got similar production and sound, but the songs are different enough that i don't feel like i'm listening to WTS again. At a whopping 14 tracks to, its good value. I found it kind of unique that there was a track primarily just guitar, and another track of just drums.
Favorite Tracks:
While Oceana Sleeps and End Moraine (especially around 2:30).
Some of the tracks on the album are nearly epic, with very big and full guitars and vocals saturated in delay i almost got chills.

Sparta has been one of my anthem bands recently and though I've only heard some of the new album I like what I've heard. I think I'll pick it up soon enough. - Fri, 13 Aug 2004 3:52am

I think it is a solid record. I was hoping for a little more expansion since the last record, but it is satisfying none the less. Less of the harsh, raspy singing would have been nice. The mellower songs are always my favourite by sparta (same as the last record). "While Oceana Sleeps" being my top pic. - Tue, 24 Aug 2004 12:57am
