And "Crises" !
The long title track with OB-Xa, Quantec QRS and wonderful drum programming.
And "Five Miles Out" !
Love this heavy instrumental playing taking turns with fairy-like vocals.

Oh, and lest I forget: Don Tillman's band Tesseract is worth listening for
anybody who likes prog, too. Don plays a Rhodes Chroma and some Hammond
if memory serves, and there is an electric violin, and the inventor of
Yamaha-style
physical modelling plays his VL-1.
