Facilement un des albums les plus fantastiques de l'année 1999 !
Un projet au départ de Chris Cutler, après Art Bears, Domestic Stories qui confronte ses textes (ici sur le thème des "sciences") aux compositions de Stevan Tickmayer. Pour l'occasion, sa musique contemporaine se fait rock, voire progressive, superbement chantée par Amy Denio et Bob Drake. Ce dernier ajoute sa touche personnelle et radicale dans le mixage et la production de cet album déjà mythique.
Une référence dans le monde des créations rock !
