| The boys do it again. Brilliant from start to finish. Alot more Proggy influences than the last few releases make this a more challenging listen . 'What About Love' & 'Blue Moon Monday' are the standouts for me -with John Payne sounding in top form throughout. I still prefer the debut and the awesome 'Aura' over this, but this is right up there with their best releases.

| Jez is dead right again, I was initially disappointed by the more progressive nature of it but once those subtle hooks take hold you'll rate this as highly as "Aqua" and "Aura" (I've never owned the stuff with Wetton fronting it). The best tracks are all in the first half of this, for me, but you always know what you'll get with Asia and any fan will not be disappointed with this. Great production on this also, and a real highlight of 2004 so far. 8.5/10.

| muy buen album, y eso que no empieza el título por la letra A :-) Es AOR progresivo del bueno, con estribillos superpegadizos y con un muy buen trabajo de teclados, como siempre. En resumen, im-prezionante.

| Well thought out and executed. The best they have done since "Aqua". More progressive than before but like TIM (2) said, once it gets those subtle hooks in, there is no getting them out. Memorable album throughout. The musicianship is superb and the writing is spot on. Highly recommended.

| Again, AsiA released yet another blockbuster of an album. I'd say my favorite three songs would be 'What About Love', 'Long Way From Home' and 'I Will Be There For You'. Thankfully, we have a cohesive unit of four guys doing what they do best...Aura was great, but it had too many guests on it. 'Silent Nation' gets my vote for Album of the Year. The bonus package w/ the DVD is really cool. Simply put, A MUST-HAVE!!

| this time you have to listen to the record more then once to find some really catchy tunes,("long way from home"), that`s a huge differnence from "aura", who had a lot of catchy tunes, some that perhaps reminded me a little bit to much of A-ha, and Wax of all bands. even though it is absolutely worth having.....

| Increíble que nadie haya mencionado a "LONG WAY FROM HOME" que es de lejos el mejor tema del album IMO, que temazo muy logrado con ese toque fino antes del solo de mitad de la canción Uff.. El resto está bueno AOR progresivo con sus teclados bien puestos, John Payne lo hace muy bien(Lástima que no pude ir a su concert como si lo hizo Beto y x lo q veo CarlosA. tb) y no defrauda. La 7,6.8 y 10, "Blue Moon Monday" muy buen tema Lento Místico pero muy alargado/Progresivo. 8.5/10

Vaya que sí Carlos, Beto me contó y sí que fué un muy buen concert de seguro. Que tal temazo el Long Way from Home! me lo perdí, mira tú Chris Slade me impresionó x meterle mucha chispa a los veteranos de AC/DC  me lo perdí. Ojala que Wetton vuelva y sí ps alucinar no cuesta nada  . Ya ps Carlos, yo tengo harto material para comentar en BrutalMetal y ojala que escribas pronto, por cierto, respeto todas todos los coments pero a los loquitos que no tienen cura si no los paso  Saludos.
