An Italian review:

Signed!
@ orso 888: alla FNAC di Via Torino. Ciao
My impressions:
DISC ONE
Out of the Woods (2:41): a pretty orchestral introduction. Lively and cinematographic.
The Hollow Lands (7:37): epic beginning (it reminds me of “Quadropheniaâ€Â, The Who), then it becomes a more solid rock song. During the central jam beautiful interaction between guitar, flutes and violins.
Through the Veil (16:01): at the moment, my favorite song of the album. The structure and the main solid guitar riff remind me of “Starhammerâ€Â, but this is more varied. As you can imagine, the song has a long jam in the central part, dynamic and with many changes of rhythm. Great communication between the band and the orchestra. A triumph of sounds. Very prog!! The final reprise of the main theme is magnificent!
Doldrums (3:07): instrumental. Ethereal and dreamy.
Into the Gyre (10:22): Fairytale, melodic beginning. Very soft. Second part: more dramatic and loud. Great guitar riff and good work of the violins. Third part: faster!! Kenneth is fast, Snah is god. Fourth part: melancholy and suffused.
Flotsam (1:33): instrumental. Only a violin. Silky and low.
DISC TWO
Oh, Proteus – A Prayer (7:35): enigmatic and fairy. Very melodic theme.
Sculls in limbo (2:21): an interlude. Noises in the silence. Almost a Supersilent song.
La Lethe (7:53): instrumental. Very calm and quiet in the beginning, then the song has noisy and orchestral openings. A trumpet solo before the loud and cinematographic end.
Oh, Proteus – A lament (1:05): short reprise of the first song.
Sharks (7:56): very intimate beginning. Bent sings soft and inspired. It reminds me the melody of an old MP song: “Celestineâ€Â. But this is more varied and dramatic in the final crescendo.
Mutiny! (8:33): very energetic song. Fast and vibrant. Probably the most rocking song on the album. Great refrain!
Into the Mystic (7:05): rock, but bright and airy. Incredible space-digression in the final part. Just a word: magic!

It's the Stickman version. Here you can see 3 pics:

I thought that it would be released February 10, but I found it this morning in Milan!
Perhaps you know it, but (at least in Italy) the album is already out. I have my copy and I'm listening to it right now for the first time. It seems to me that the album requires many plays to be assimilated…
