Progressive rock, also known as prog rock or prog, is a rock music subgenre that originated in the United Kingdom, with further developments in Germany, Italy, and France, throughout the mid-to-late 1960s and 1970s. It developed from psychedelic rock and originated, similarly to art rock, as an attempt to give greater artistic weight and credibility to rock music.

The Progressive Metal experimentation is retained from “Meridian I,” but gone are that album’s pacing problems and lack of variety in the longer tracks. “Meridian II” feels tighter, less sprawling, more focused, and more thematically cohesive. Being part of a four-part series, PHAVIAN needed this album to be good in order to get fans to stick

Debut album of this brazilian Progressive Metal endeavour. Heavy songs, strong melodies, intense instrumentals in progressive roots; The concept behind this album portrays the human cyclic condition in its countless manifestations.
