Scottish band Pallas were one of the first Neo Prog bands to Arrive Alive on the music scene in 1981 with the release of their debut live album. Three years later, came their stunning magnum opus - The Sentinel - a science fiction concept album about a technologically advanced civilisation that brings itself to the brink of destruction, despite The Dreams of Men hoping for a better world. Sound familiar? The third Pallas album would drive The Wedge between those fans who wanted to hear another classic prog album and others who wanted a more modern sound. After all, this was the 1980's, so there's no accounting for taste. I know how we like to constantly Beat the Drum about the merits of prog here at PA and some of us even Live Our Lives from Moment to Moment every day in the progosphere. Like me for instance. We all have The Cross & the Cruc ible to bear in trying to convince prog non-believers they don't know what they're missing out on in life, but We Are Who We Are, and sadly, some non-believers may be destined to remain in The Blinding Darkness and be forever ignorant of the joyous wonders of prog until The Edge of Time itself. Confused

Year 2000: I had two albums Of Pallas (The Sentinel, The Cross And The Crucible). And recently, A friend of mine talk to me about this band. So I think I will buy again some CDs of them. Their music is very melodic, symphonic, sometimes heavy. Imho, far better than the new albums of Clepsydra and Collage.

As I've mentioned before, I oddly did have a soft spot for Beat The Drum and saw them on tour supporting the album, but I've never really enjoyed any of their others that much... sorry!

There will always be a place in my heart for both The Sentinel and The Wedge, in spite of both being available with different track listings when re-issued. Living far from Scotland, the comeback albums were a big surprise, but eventually left me hugely underwhelmed.

It's really not that spooky. I read your comment in another thread where you said there's never been a tribute thread for Pallas, which prompted me to create one. Wink

Mr. Psyche Paul.

What a great thread.
Definitely Pallas deserve to sit in the higher echelon of Neo Prog bands. I absolutely adore “Beat The Drum” and Dreams Of Men.
I’m fortunate enough to have the 2CD deluxe edition of that album. It is a beauty.

After Alan Reed Left they got a bit heavier sounding with 25vvv. Good album, but not as magical as the first 2 I mentioned.

Overall though. Pallas deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Arena, IQ, Galahad and Marillion.

:)
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

I’d like to explore more mostly autumn 🍂.
I only have one album from them. Ghost light orchestra I think it is called and it has been ages since I listened to it. I’ll have to fix that.
Haven’t explored Osiris or Abel Ganz.
I still will always have a rabbit hole to go down. :) and

The Dreams Of Men is a tremendous album but I haven't explored much further than that. Think I may own XXV but wasn't impressed and so didn't explore further. Strangely I've never heard the Sentinel.

I agree Richard.
Haven’t gone past post Alan Reed Era. Also that makes two of us regarding the Sentinel. I haven’t listened to the whole album all the way through cause I’ve yet to procure a physical copy of the disc.
I shall fix that someday.
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣
