American progressive rock band Kansas' sixth studio album Monolith
was their third straight studio album to hit the Billboard Top 10 in
the US. Just like on their previous recordings you'll find an extra
amount of superb drumming and bass playing. They created some
superlative, spiritual music that fuses the best parts of American rock
and English prog. This well-arranged record was the beginning of a
slightly different approach, but it still maintains the power of all the
band had to offer during those days. The tracks “On the Other Side”,
"Angels Have Fallen" and "How My Soul Cries Out for You" are good
examples of the great music the band recorded for this album.
Kansas became
popular during the 1970s with hits like "Carry On Wayward Son" and
"Dust in the Wind". Besides their well-known ballads, they also recorded
some impressive progressive pieces. The diversity of their music and
the immense energy of the band is one of the reasons why they're still
performing and recording.
