I had a lot of fun trying this one. With many of the songs, I felt the intro promised more power than the song as a whole maintained. Black as Time, the final track, is totally top tier. They made the effort to set the mood to that track with a great voice over. Sometimes I think we can see when the artists believe they've created the album's best part.
