STARCASTLE was one of the popular and well-respected bands of the American prog of the 70's. This band was known for their YES-influenced

sophistication. The music was original in terms of composition lyrics and performance.
They released four studio albums between 1976 and 1978. Their first two albums for Epic, Starcastle and Fountains of Light are
archetypes of the symphonic sound; utopian, grand, sweeping, intricate, complex and melodic. On Real and Fountains, the band
changed its orientation and went towards a direct soft rock with some YES-like vocals. Chronos I is a great archive work and also features
some really good alternative versions to their known work.
In 2007, the band released one last album, Song of Times
