...this is really nicely done and even highly recommended to Progrockfans!
author: Gabor Fabian
Out of New Jersey comes multi-instrumentalist R. SEAN FAUST. He is playing Progressive Rock with influences from DREAM THEATER, RUSH and YES. It sounds really American, with more clean melodies and a bigger sound than for example the European/UK acts that play this kind of style. Opener “Midnight express” is a very impressive instrumental bombastic Progressive Rocksong. Next track “Higher source” features vocals, and is a nice slowtempo Progressive Rocker like a polished DREAM THEATER. Then follows a bit less interesting part with lots of acoustic guitar, but “Circles” picks up again a good melodic Progressive Rocksound, although this is an instrumental track. Although I was not really impressed by the vocals, on the song “Tomorrow” we can hear some really good vocals, and secondly this is one of the album’s strongest songs, a powerful bombastic Progrock ballad that even has some KANSAS and SAVATAGE influences. The CD closes with “The untitled art”, a Classical Music influenced instrumental. Concluded, this is really nicely done and even highly recommended to Progrockfans!

...each song has its possessive powers and movements within its elite instrument
author: Wednesday Elektra
Its been awhile since I last heard some material from one of NJ's finest keyboardists! Sean never seems to stray too far away from this atmospheric progressive metal style of music. On this album unlike Sean's works in his former band Money For The Toll the composition and arrangements are more prominent andjust beautiful sounding. Midnight Express is like listening to an orchestra in the heat of the moment.
Its amazing material, vocals or no vocals each song has its possessive powers and movements within its elite instrumentation's. Definitely check this album out if you like powerful music. There really are no words to describe how awesome this album is.
