Spock’s Beard’s fourth CD, "Day For Night" catapulted the band once and for all into the premier league of progressive rock. Once again they reaped nothing but positive reviews, earning the coveted 'Album of the Month' (for the second time running) in Germany's Rock Hard magazine. Featuring the stunning vocal complexity of “Gibberish” and the soothing beauty of “Lay it Down”, this record establishes the beard as masters of their universe, or at least Pasadena!
