In A Flesh Aquarium has been released in Europe recently and it's already accumulating great reviews that we'll put online soon enough if my pancreas stops talking to me.

“ Unexpect manage to defy every single tangible law of metal and meld In a Flesh Aquarium into a twisted work of sheer, breathtaking genius… the most demented and unclassifiable yet brilliantly unique and challenging album since La Masquerade Infernale...” -Digital Metal
“ In a Flesh Aquarium is perhaps the most original body of work I’ve heard to this point in a 2006 that bodes to finish with some of the most interesting creations of metal’s revival period ” -Amp Magazine
“…you could just call this the soundtrack to the most twisted circus in history. The Cirque du Soleil, under the administration of Satan… Definitely try this out though, love it or hate it you haven't heard anything like it before. I've been into metal for over fifteen years and I haven't heard this before. Now if you'll pardon me, I need to lie down..." -Deadtide
“ Unexpect have given birth to the strangest album in 2006, if not the entire decade… after a few spins, it will tunnel itself deep in your mind… ” -Metalocity Zine
“ This is really a unique listening experience… The bar for avant-garde & progressive metal just got raised folks ” - Sea of Tranquility
“ I see the Devil smiles at me, for this is the Devil’s music. He smiles at my lack of comprehension... this is the most diverse metal album I’ve ever heard. It takes me everywhere. And beyond… the biggest musical challenge I have ever had thinking of metal of any categories…” -Imhotep
