Prog rock giant Simon Collins returns with masterpiece album ‘Becoming Human’

Having spent his entire life within the music industry, Simon Collins’s ‘Becoming Human’ is his best work to date. A compelling album fuelled with prog rock, and even electronic pop sensibilities, the lyrical themes throughout the release covers personal loss, addiction, and nature. As the son of musical legend Phil Collins, songwriting is Simon’s second nature and place of comfort. Led by the powerful title track, ‘Becoming Human’ describes a journey of personal transformation and discovering what it truly means to be a human. 

A strong asset to the world of prog rock and beyond, “Becoming Human” is one of the best albums of 2020. Produced by keyboardist and sound designer Robbie Bronnimann, the album was released on Frontier Records back in September. Sounding somewhere between Steven Wilson and Peter Gabriel, ‘Becoming Human’ is impressive and truly a journey that needs your full engagement.
