After a couple of listens, I've got to admit that I've been enjoying it a lot. The plot and concept is easy to follow, especially with the comic to follow along with. This is definitely an easier story to get into than albums like 01 and The Source, especially with fewer characters (at least it seems like it).
Musically speaking, its typical Arjen, and I don't mind the narration, perhaps because I also like Arjen's Lost In The New Real, which featured a fair amount of narration as well. I admit to missing Ed Warby on this one, but the new drummer has some good chops and works well for the sound of the album.
Without going back and checking, is this album the one with the most different female vocalists, five total? Maybe 01 had as many given how many characters are in it. The female vocalists in Transitus are easily a highlight for me!
