Styx Cyclorama DVD-A Review (1084 words)
Looking at the album credits, I noticed that although most of the songs are sung by bandleader Shaw, the vocalist most people normally associate with the sound of Styx, a handful other band members take the mic.
Having a hip band like The D on their album was a smart way to give a reason to kids, who might have only heard of Styx because their brothers played them on cassette in their Camaro in the ‘70s or ‘80s, to discover Styx for themselves now.
Styx can still rock and in surround there is a new reason for Gen X and Y to figure out why their brothers all had Styx cranking in the Camaro.
