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.

Pyramid Theorem – Pyramid Theorem (2012)

With nothing but passion being the driving force behind this progressive machine, PYRAMID THEOREM has nowhere to look but up.

The band’s music is nothing short of a musical journey with paralyzing epics that are irresistible to the ear. Their signature sound is derived from incredible lead guitar work; precise drumming, and experimental synth that completes the bands unstoppable fusion.

After the release of “Voyage to the Star” in 2008, the band broke themselves into Toronto’s music scene where they have proven themselves as one of the ultimate up and coming progressive rock acts by participating in many live events and receiving recording awards from participating competitions. Such accomplishments have given the band the opportunity to open for touring heavyweights: Sonata Artica, Edguy, Powerglove, Fair to Midland, and Symphony X.
