Where this album fits
- Career context
- Released in 2012, 'Focus X' marked a significant return for Focus, being their first studio album since 2006's 'Focus 9.' The band, known for their pioneering contributions to progressive rock in the early 1970s, sought to reconnect with their roots while exploring new musical territories. This album came after several lineup changes and reflects both a homage to their classic sound and an evolution towards contemporary influences.
