Excellent progressive music from talented musicians, more dynamic than Chroma Key material though. Good balance between hard pieces of music and nostalgic ballads. People who liked Liquid Tension Experiment (One or Two) will appreciate this special release. Set the controls for the heart of the sun is a good remake, Floyd fans won't be disappointed.

I'm listening to it right now. This is so good that is hard to believe. At least a new wave of ideas and style to the progressive genere. A totally different concept from DT, Symphony X and so others. Of course, the musicians are superb.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's all right...but not mind-blowing., May 20 2004

While there may be some high points on this disc, the absence of polyryhtms is probably what bothers me the most....maybe Jim Matheos should have let the guy from Gordian Knot play bass on every track....Mike Portnoy's groove is solid as ever though, and I like the way the keyboards set up grooves for some of the songs...keep trying, guys.

5.0 out of 5 stars refreshing and tasty
Refreshing and tasty psychedelic music, O.S.I. is a must for any prog aficionado for converting casual listeners. Also makes good accompaniment for parties/tokage sessions.
