STYX first albums with the lead guitarist John Curulewski are interesting because they approach to rock music is kinda progressive which is my fav (pop) music genre. However the "Man of Miracles" album saw them begun to turn into "mainstream", and I lost interest. Nevertheless, their leader Dennis DeYoung is kinda intellectual as he summarizes entertaining business on the "Return to Paradise" DVD, 1996 as "it´s somebody else´s fantasy, it´s all BS". Funny guy, isn´t he :)
