Styx's late '70s masterpieces, filled with ambition and signature songsTheir eighth album, which reached number six on the US charts and went double platinum, includes hits like "Renegade" and "Blue Collar Man." This album fused progressive development with the catchiness of arena rock, clearly defining the band's direction. Centered around the hits "Renegade" and "Blue Collar Man," the album unfolds in a grand soundscape that makes use of synths and choruses. Combining commercial and artistic merit, this album is highly regarded as a symbol of Styx's late '70s era. |
