Album Notes & Community Reviews

Reuniting after a multi-year hiatus, the symphonic rock pioneers recorded 'Octave' amidst significant internal tension and the eventual departure of keyboardist Mike Pinder. The album updates their trademark lush orchestrations with contemporary soft rock and synthesizer pop sensibilities.
