Thoughts while listening:

Yes, very Floyd-esque...nice filled-out sound. And it's good to hear a whole band playing here on NG...not many actual bands here. Ahhh...live-drummer...sniff...getting misty-eyed here. Whoever is working that keyboard actually has a very good feel for the long-winded-type of solo common to Pink Floyd. Slap-bass at 3:30 is a nice touch. Change-up at 4:00 is nice and tight. Hallmark of a good band with lots of practice. Bass solo at 5:05 is...well...I have a personal beef with bass solos...probably because I'm a guitarist. Not sold on the bass solo going over 30 seconds, either. Vocal at 06:50 is utterly incoherant, and the effect is so compressed it feels like it isn't even in the same room. Nice clean guitar at 08:00. This tune is going all over the place, isn't it? Nice electric addition at 09:12. It's rare to have a distorted guitar sound good as lead over an undistorted one, and your bassist is filling it out wonderfully. Impressive skills at 10:30 on that elec.! Props to the lead player. Really long fade-out time. Like, a full minute to fade-out.

Thoughts after listening:

First, I'll say up front that I appreciate the difficulty in live-playing something of this length and complexity, and I understand that you probably won't be redoing this anytime soon. This is to help future recordings...

Some improvements;
-Your drummer is juuuuuuuuusssst slightly off. You can especially hear it when he/she comes in, slightly behind the beat, then hurries to catch up. Usually I find that this is a confidence thing.
-There were times when it dragged a little more than it needed to. Your lead guitarist is damn good, but I feel that, especially on multiple repeats of the same arpeggio, he was stalling for time, rather than adding to the solo.
-The vocal shouldn't be there. It distracted from the playing, sounded awful, and didn't add anything to the piece. As well, the FX on it made it sound totally disjointed, like it was being played on a TV turned up too-loud in the next room.

Some good things;

-This was compositionally and stylistically excellent. You and your band really captured the sound you were after.
-The performance was tight, with the band holding together through some very challenging changes.
-I don't smoke-up, but a pop-up window came up on my PC and offered to dispense a joint.

Overall, damn solid track. If you guys can play like that live, you've got a career ahead of you. Excellent work.

4.5/5, R4R

Dude, you're sorta my hero. I FINALLY found a prog rock tune on NG that's worth listening (apart from Venus which is like ages old now and has gotten a bit boring). This track's got all a prog lover like me could ask for: tension/release moments, Banksesque synth soloing, sudden mood changes and pleasant melodies. The only things that put me off a bit are: the loud hihat and a teeny bit offkey synth sound. Check out my stuff. I also do prog so you might find yourself satisfied ;) .
