Their first is really great.  I bought it about 6 months ago, actually
on a English LP first of all.  _Mirage_, their second, is slightly
better, in my opinion.  I saw them play a few of their new music in San
Juan Capistrano back in, I think, March.  Great show.

 KN> Oh, then I probably won't like it.
I like _Impending Ascension_ too.  _Hour of Restoration_ is nearly as
likable.  It's funny, 'cause I really don't like any of the other bands
on Magna Carte.  I even saw Enchant recently at a small nightclub in
Fremont (around the S.F. Bay area) and I left after a couple of songs.
They were just too simplistic.
