The factors are conceivably many.

Whether, it's the genius writing and execution of Michael Romeo - his thoughts incubating exactly four years since the band's slamming last album »Iconoclast« - or the richness of experience gained by Russell Allen over a triumphant run with TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA, or the heroic health battles of drummer Jason Rullo bounding back from heart failure in 2013, or simply the maturity of holding fast a band lineup, essentially rock-solid over 20 years... whatever the factors involved, SYMPHONY X have struck an enriched level of maturity with their ninth album, entitled »Underworld«.

Having been through the wars, voluntarily made tougher by insisting on playing intellectually and technically challenging music for fans that demand it - and then made harsh again by the evolving contours of the music industry, most notably the shift to singles and single songs – SYMPHONY X have triumphed, creating a panoramic old school “album rock” experience in an era cursed with shorter and shorter attention spans.
