This is the album which put Glass Hammer on the prog-rock map in a big way. 2000’s Chronometree is back now with a remastered disc, bonus track and full insert with story and lyrics. We felt this was a great time to bring back a classic with the release of Chronomonaut in October. Both albums go together to tell the story of Tom, time traveler and prog-rock’s ultimate fan. One distributor told us that Chronometree was “our biggest GLASS HAMMER hit ever, it is also one of our best selling Prog titles of all time !!!”
Featuring the first appearance of Susie Bogdanowicz in the GH lineup and stellar performances by guitarist Arjen Lucassen.
“What we have here is one of the best progressive albums of the year, and it probably will stand the test of time and become a future classic. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!” Greger Ronnqvist - ProgArchives

Was für eine Scheibe! Die Story (es geht um einen Progressive-Rock-Begeisterten der einem ausserirdischen Plan zu Übernahme der Erde "entdeckt", den sogenannten Chronometree...) treibt einem je nach Einstellung die Lachtränen oder die Begeisterung in die Augen, aber das ist nur die Nebensache.... Musikalisch wird hier die volle Breitseite symphonischen 70er Jahre progressive Rock ala Genesis und Konsorten abgeschossen. Das Ganze aber in einem modernen Soundgewand, insbesondere, was die klare und transparente Produktion anbetrifft. Fazit: Hammondorgel-, Keyboard- und Mellotroorgien vom feinsten, für die Gitarristen unter uns steuert Arje Lucassen (Ayreon) einige tolle Soli bei - The celebrated fifth album from Glass Hammer is a throwback to the 70‘s, with lots of vintage keyboards and a pretentious concept story...about nothing.
