The Universal Migrator (Remixed & Remastered)

by Ayreon

supported by

amiko Calling any of Ayreon's albums mere "albums" is almost a disservice. These albums are a series of interconnected rock operas that comprise an even greater meta-narrative.

Of course, you can ignore all of that and just have fun.

Migrator was envisioned as two albums, the first being more prog rock centric, while the second one is more prog-metal driven. Both are awesome.

Print the lyrics, read them...take it all in...it's so worth it. Favorite track: And The Druids Turn To Stone (Remixed & Remastered).

Anders Thunell The discovery of music and sung poetry has now reached perfection.
if this is ever performed live in it's entirely it will be the peak of music history.

hellion1982 This was my first Ayreon album more than 20 years ago. I have listened to this thousands of times. The remastered version is a nice update, sounds somewhat smoother and still brings back a lot of memories. Go Arjen!🤘 Favorite track: Dawn Of A Million Souls (Remixed & Remastered).

The album takes off nicely with David Longdon's "The Strangest Times", but then gets into immediate free fall and deeply underwater for the next few tracks, quite unexpectedly. Fortunately, it recovers with Nick D'Virgilio's "Apollo" (hey, this guy CAN write good music, although he hides this ability most of the time) and the remaining three tracks, one of which is another Longdon masterpiece. So in the end the final impression is somewhat in the positive range. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
