About this album

Before and After Science is a pivotal Brian Eno album, balancing sharp art-rock experiments with the quieter, more contemplative ideas that would define his later ambient work. Issued in 1977, it shows Eno moving fluidly between restless studio invention and patient melodic writing, with songs such as King’s Lead Hat and By This River illustrating the album’s striking range. Working with a refined cast of musicians and a carefully layered production approach, Eno turned fragmentation into coherence, making the record one of the clearest bridges between his early glam-era edge and his experimental legacy. Its influence has only grown over time.

Genre: Pop & Rock
