Beware of Darkness (album)
Beware of Darkness is the second studio album by American Progressive rock band Spock's Beard, released in 1996. The album was the band's first release following the addition of keyboardist Ryo Okumoto to the group. The album was named after the song of the same name, originally written and performed by George Harrison.
The album features several short songs, in contrast to their debut album The Light which consisted of just four lengthy tracks.
"Thoughts" is the first part of a cross-album suite, with follow-up parts being featured on the Spock's Beard album V and the Neal Morse album Momentum.
The album has since been remastered and re-released by Radiant Records.Track listing
