Or not.
Posted on iTunes with several other blown-away fan reviews. And no, we're not getting paid: It is just that fucking good.

It has been a very long time since I have had the pleasure of listening to an album and skillfully executed and emotionally haunting as ABIII. We were told to expect a darker album, but songs like Ghosts of Days Gone By pierce your soul like a flaming spear. Too much? Hey—you listen to Myles singing the refrain “I don’t want to die…” with a trailing note at least 32 counts long and tell me I’m wrong. A song that almost didn’t make the cut, Words Darker Than Your Wings, is equally chilling and extremely moving in the way that Myles and Mark trade choruses. It is a brilliant duet and one I sincerely hope to hear live one day.
In short, as an AB fan from the start, I have to say this is easily their most mature and most daring piece of work, and Myles’ vocals are as stunning as they have always been. Do yourself a favor and buy this CD as soon as possible. You will not regret it.
What do you mean you haven't bought it yet?
