At times it was hard not to focus on Reed's protruding ears, which were overemphasized by the large, silver, sound monitors he wore in each one during the performance. Must... not... stare... at... ears... must....re... focus. The guy is also a dead ringer for American Idol star, Clay Aiken, which was distracting enough. It took a couple of magnificent guitar solos from Mathewson to snap me out of Reed's spell and to refocus on the music. All kidding aside, Reed is a superb singer and charming frontman who really gives Pallas their unique personality.

Moment to Moment captures one of the more enthusiastic and inspired performances from this veteran rock band. Pallas' songs fluctuate dramatically between dreamy melancholic, dark and foreboding, and intensely energetic themes. The dazzling light show and intriguing visuals really enhanced the various moods revealed throughout each of these performances. Pallas fans, and fans of the neo-prog scene in general, should not miss out on this excellent new video.

The production quality of this DVD is comparable to most other Metal Mind releases, and that is top notch. Audio choices are Dolby Digital 5.1 surround and 2.0 stereo, and although they seemed to be mastered at a slightly lower level than normal, they each sounded superb. The colorful widescreen video presentation was very clear and sharp, and the camera work put you right at the show.

Bonus material includes a tour documentary, rehearsal footage, and an interview with Alan Reed and Graeme Murray. Also included is a band biography, discography, photo gallery, and desktop images.
