The band is called Gentle Giant and I just recently discovered them. They are an early prog rock group like Yes and Genesis but they were very complex even by prog rock standards and were not deemed as being radio friendly. All of their first 7 albums are gold. For their first 6 albums they only continued to make they're music more complex and complicated so its a good idea to start off with the first album and work your way up. Also its funny to listen to the first album and think to myself they made six better albums. Also the 7th album Free hand tuned things down and was a bit more commercial (by Gentle Giant standards at least)but it was still very good better than I expected. So yeah if you haven't listened to the I suggest listening to the first 7 in order if you want to start off with an album that showcases their brilliance try Octopus. That their is a masterpiece that gives Darkside of the moon a run for its money. Once again this is a prog rock band like Yes and Genesis if your not into that chances are you won't like this band. If you do like it then trust me your in for a treat. These guys are musical geniuses.
For those of you who already know the band what do you think of them? Do you agree they are underrated or am I full of shit?
