About this album

Audience’s The House On The Hill is a striking example of early-1970s British prog rock with a strong art-rock edge. Issued in 1971, the album sees the band stretching beyond their folk-rooted beginnings into sharper arrangements, darker moods and more ambitious song structures. Its blend of acoustic detail, electric force and unexpected turns gives the record real dramatic weight, while songs such as “I Had A Dream” and the title track show the group’s talent for balancing musicianship with memorable hooks. The album remains one of Audience’s most admired statements, valued for its originality and the way it bridges pastoral songwriting and progressive experimentation.

Genre: Pop & Rock
