For the second album Knight Area expanded to a full seven-piece band and 'Under A New Sign' appeared in 2007 to excellent reviews worldwide, and demonstrated their classic neo-prog sound, influenced by such bands as Pendragon and IQ. The new album 'Heaven and Beyond' was composed and recorded by Knight Area in 2015/2016. The songs are recorded in the BOEM studio in The Netherlands, produced by Knight Area, mixed by Joost van den Broek (After Forever, Epica, Star One) and Mastered by Peter Brussee at Q-point. With 'Heaven and Beyond' Knight Area find the balance between their symphonic songs and harder edged neo-prog tracks with perfectly balanced guitars and keys.
