I got pretty exited when I heard about this album, I must say that I got a little disapointed, not great changes, but it isn't bad at all ......

As an AP FREAK  , The sound is quite dated i think, and the fact that each and every album sounds a bit different makes them ASTRAL, after all, 9 years as astral and 4 more as SFX "Dont come by feet" (Israeli translation... Get it? ).
anyway, i enjoyed the album ALOT!
well, im waiting for their next album...
Cheers AP!

I think that 1 000 000 years from today, electric blue, heavens gate and amen have the best sound in the album. But I'm really doubt that one of the tracks in this album will be a total hit.

This album opens on a track, not the most powerfull one but just honest enough in order to reput yourself progresively into Astral Projection’s sounds in the case you’ve forgotten it.
Then from Tracks 2 to 5, you get the typical powerfull & melodic goa stuffs from AP with their usual tones, note that some little interesting improvements are included in the build up of Sticks & Stones.
With tracks 6 & 7 AP try to deliver something a bit different, more uplifting (but don’t expect revolutionnary sounds tricks). The production is slighty darker or rougher but strangely doesn’t work well on me despite this effort.
Come-back to the genuine AP sound with the classic already released Anything Is Possible, may appears a bit easy or clubby to some people but more effective in my mind than the 2 previous tracks.
The 2 last songs, are one more time , the occasion for AP to propose a bit of variety with some more cosmic & emotionnal morning goa style.
Best moments :3,4,9
Nice tracks :2,5,8,10
Most of people consider Amen as an old fashioned release, that the hits in Amen aren’t as stomping as in the past, and that’s true i can’t say the opposite.
But if you just think that a lot of Trance artists didn’t make music anymore or evolve to more clubbyy styles like house,kinda false Progressive or indeed real soappy Tek-House ; so it’s perhaps not tht bad to see that a band like AP keep going on making Goa after all…
Furthermore, the total time running of Amen is 79 minutes, check all your albums & compilations, it becomes exceptionnal nowadays !
Mark :7/10 (if you’re a goa lover) & 4/10 (if you’re into Trance since 2-3 years & dig on mostly current Psytrance or Progressive)
