A solid Progressive Metal record, but I don't find anything special about it. If it had more energy and better choruses, it could be truly great, but as it is, it sits outside the gate of greatness.

My most played album # 617. Threshold - Critical Mass. My 9th Threshold album on my most played list, this band has put out so many great albums. Progressive rock at it's best. Sounds like Dream Theater meets Kansas!
