Vision Divine - The Perfect Machine (2005)

Vision Divine's STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS was a big jump in quality over the band's first two albums, but this one isn't able to match it.  The story helps, that being of a society which invents a machine that can end death for all, which results in God leaving them to it, before they realise immortality isn't so great after all, so they ask God back. 
This is all good enough to keep the interest, and the music is still well done, being again a mixture of power and progressive metal. It's just not as grabbing as STREAM was.
