Spock's Beard - The Oblivion Particle (Inside Out)
Spock's Beard have done it again! These guys have been part of the prog rock legacy for over 20 years. The departure of Neal Morse back in the day did leave the band in a state of turmoil. Furthermore Nick D' Virgillio's departure and success with Big Big Train led to even further questioning of the band's future. But Spock's Beard are here! "Brief Nocturnes.." two years ago, was an amazing gem of an album and the band will not leave it there! They continue to impress by releasing one of the best prog rock record of the year. This album has it all, from quiet introspective moments to all out prog excitation. It may not redefine the genre (not that it needs to), but it certainly establishes that post D'Virgillio Beard were not a one trick pony (or an one album band), but are able to continuously reinvent themselves and create new avenues to express their creativity.
