Album Notes & Community Reviews

Reaching number one on the UK album charts, the band's seventh LP perfectly distills their signature synthesis of cosmic philosophy and lush, orchestral pop. Utilizing the newly developed Moog synthesizer alongside their standard Mellotron walls, the sprawling opening track 'Procession' traces the history of human communication. It is a highly polished, deeply conceptual pinnacle of the progressive pop era.
