it's epic, check it out, if you like classic prog rock...it's a bit German, but by mid-point, you'll like it. trust.

Yup, classic 70's German prog rock. They have a couple other serious gems, too; Planets is another one.
Check out Gentle Giant, Van Der Graaf Generator, and PFM if you haven't dude.

oh Gentle Giant is probably in the top five bands, ever.
The reference is I vs environment?
Plato's Philebus and the book Intelligence & Spirit will clear this up.

Dude, same. They are SO underrated. I'll go on a limb and say GG is THE most technically proficient prog rock band that nobody cares about, lmao. They are RIGHT behind Yes for me. Chris Squire is the reason I picked up the bass almost 20 years ago now. Ray Shulman from GG is RIGHT behind him in terms of prowess!
What's your favorite GG record?!

Dude yes! You're my fave here now LOL.
In a Glass House for me. The title track FTW. The way that killer hard rock like 19/8 riff comes in towards the second half...FUCK ME!!!
Freehand is amazing, it might be their most solid all around. It's def the go-to for showing friends this band. *snap...snap snap...snap...SEE ME...AS I AM...WHAT I WAS...WHAT I'll BE...."
You also dig Yes, Van Der Graaf Generator, Genesis, King Crimson, etc. I assume? Prog rock forever dude. I'm all in on that shit lol.
