Reception

Musicwaves.fr described Flowing Portraits as "a pivotal album" even if just their debut album, while Dprp.net wrote that the highlight of the album is the last song, the epic called Tears Of Kalliroe, which features an amazing orchestral overture, followed by sheer brilliant prog metal passages. Closer To Daylight, the band's second album, passed with flying colours and scored the album 5 out of 5 on Allaroundmetal.com. Of the band's third album, a concept album titled 4, Progmetalzone.com wrote that the album is full of ambitious, technically accomplished and poignant material that showcases the strength of each and every single musician in the band, as well as the band’s cohesiveness as a unit, as they have finally found a stable line-up after a few past changes.. About BABEL, Progarchives wrote that it was worth 4.5 stars and a strong contender for a masterpiece status..
