Artist: Spocks Beard | Album: Noise Floor (2CD) [Digipak – Special Edition] | Released: 2018 | Label: Inside Out Music / Sony Music | Catalog: 19075847002 | Genre: Rock

Spock’s Beard formed in 1992 when brothers Neal (lead vocals) and Al Morse (guitar) teamed up with drummer Nick D’Virgilio. After self-financing their first album, bassist Dave Meros joined, and The Light was recorded in 1994. Consisting of four lengthy songs, the album was well-received by progressive rock fans, but received little public acclaim. Ryo Okumoto joined in 1995 to play keyboards. In 1996, The Official Bootleg was released, a live performance containing the entire first album plus one song from the upcoming second album. The same year saw the band sign with various record labels around the world, in addition to releasing Beware of Darkness, which contained the same style of music, but in shorter pieces (all ten minutes or less, except for the 15-plus-minute last track). Spock’s Beard’s third studio album, The Kindness of Strangers, was released at the end of 1997; Day for Night followed in 1999, and V was issued a year later.
