every time Edgar picks up the guitar, everything likable about this band goes out the window.My thoughts exactly

I think as a rule I can sympathize with this, but have a hard time understanding that on this album.
How can you like TD but not like the part on the title track (part 2?) with the descending piano riff, disco-ish drum groove and guitar? These guys have never been about virtuosity. And the drums alternating between the motorik beat and open hats is totally thrilling stuff and it's by no means the wanky soloing on "Cloudburst Flight" (which is being played over such a mightily awesome synth bass riff I don't really care).
And while the synth arpeggios on "Thru Metamorphic Rocks" are indeed insane (and the soundtrack to the awesome heist scene in Michael Mann's Thief), the heroic melodic stuff in the second section achieves some kind of weird stately beauty.
I love this album unconditionally.
