Welcome to the ninety-third week of r/progrockmusic's Album of the Week! Last week we discussed Gentle Giant's Acquiring the Taste and that was lovely.
If you'd like to peruse previous weeks' discussions, please visit the archive.
The neo-prog (post-prog?) supergroup to end all supergroups. Endless talent produces very interesting results.

####Potential Discussion Questions:
-
An unsurprisingly diverse listen, this album certainly hearkens back to the golden age of prog; however, Neal and Gang have some veritable tricks up their sleeves on this one, too. What separates this album from 70's prog, and what separates this album from its early-2000's peers?
-
How would you personally rate the album?
-
Are there any moments on the album you consider particularly strong or particularly weak (i.e., favourite/least favourite moments)?
