An undeservedly forgotten Masterpiece. A pearl and the highest trademark of ethnic electronic music which can be creative and beautiful without any clichés.
This album feels like a journey into the Eastern world—viewed through a modern lens—full of surprises and mystery.
Actually this album contains 6 tracks.
2 final lengthy tracks fills the 50% of album as an ambient and meditative side of this project.

It is very sad that 30% of the site's users will be dead by 2036—the year their next, sixth album is released.
The album sounds like a blend of *Geogaddi* and *MHTRTC*. It isn't nearly as dark as others are making it out to be; only the track titles and the cover art are truly dark. Their previous release was actually the darker one. The album is interesting, but it definitely wasn't worth a 13-year wait. After 13 years, they really should have delivered a masterpiece on ... read more
A maximally predictable album from the late-era Tori Amos. It is gratifying that there turned out to be fewer outright weak songs than expected—though, conversely, there are no tracks on the level of "Reindeer King."

User reactions to the last three albums clearly demonstrate why critics' opinions matter. The M I 7's ratings are laughably low, yet it definitely deserves at least 70.
To be fair, user ratings are also extremely important in the case of the her "MAYA" album and saved it from a stupid critic's attack.
Despite the fact that "M I.7" is extremely easy to listen to, unlike her 3rd and 4th albums, the singer herself hasn't stopped being a little crazy, at ... read more
For some reason, I'm sure tracks like "Roulette Thrift Run" and the middle of "Vengeance Drools" were a fluke. Because he's never done anything like that before or since. It's a shame, because I had high hopes for him in the 2000s.

This is one of his best albums. It has more waltz-like, flowing melodies than usual. Lots of harp and pseudo-guitars. And there are even two vocal songs: one extremely boring "Open" and one really good "Secret.".
