| Description: | Anthology by Planet X, released 21 July 2023.
This version of Anthology comes as a 4xCD. - The long-awaited re-release of the entire Planet X catalog has finally arrived, in the form of one lavishly bundled digipak. This 4-CD set has been re-mastered by Simon Phillips and includes a twenty-page booklet packed with photos, liner notes, and a detailed history of the band and the music. Packaged in deluxe O-Sleeve "In a world of recycled or transient musical ideas, it's rare for any band to be truly ground-breaking and innovative. Too often, acts merely create poorly executed retrograde musical concepts that could never be classed as genre-leading. There are of course a few exceptions, many of whom are more familiar names to the uninitiated than Planet X. Yet this band was able to accomplish what others merely dreamed of - inventing their own genre and leaving a high watermark for others to attempt and equal." Featured artists include Derek Sherinian, Virgil Donati, Brett Garsed, Allan Holdsworth, Jimmy Johnson, Tony MacAlpine, Dave Larue, and Tom Kennedy. Disc 1: Universe (2000) Disc 2: Moonbabies (2002) Disc 3: Live From Oz (2002) Disc 4: Quantum (2006)Issued in a 8-panel digipak with clear tray and 20-page booklet, housed in a o-card."Anthology" on CD by Planet X is a powerful showcase of the band's most essential and influential work, released by Planet X Records / Cargo. This collection brings together key tracks that capture the group's signature blend of highly technical progressive rock, fusion and metal, characterized by complex rhythms, virtuosic instrumental performances and an intense, atmospheric sound. Across the CD, listeners are taken through intricately arranged compositions that balance precision with energy, making "Anthology" an ideal entry point for new listeners and a compact highlight reel for long-time fans.
The CD format emphasizes clarity and detail, allowing the nuances of the drums, guitar, bass and keyboards to stand out. The tracks span different creative phases of Planet X, revealing the evolution of their sound while maintaining a consistent musical identity built on complexity, dynamics and instrumental interplay. Whether played loud on a full hi-fi system or enjoyed on headphones, this anthology underlines why Planet X is widely regarded as a reference point in modern instrumental progressive music.
