The High – Close to Edgh Today
1970s Progressive Rock | Power Pop Melodies | Concept Album

Close to Edgh Today is the ambitious sixth studio album by The High, pushing their sound deeper into the fast-paced, intricate territory of early 1970s British progressive rock while retaining sharp, hook-driven melodies inspired by classic 70s power pop.

This album blends driving rhythms, dynamic song structures, and melodic sophistication, creating a sound that feels both progressive and immediately accessible. Intricate instrumental passages meet concise songwriting, resulting in a record that balances technical energy with memorable choruses.

The album also pays tribute to the melodic warmth and emotional clarity of Today!, reinterpreted through a progressive rock lens. This influence can be heard in the album’s emphasis on harmony, melodic flow, and expressive arrangements.

An additional layer of meaning lies in the band’s name. In Japanese, “High” translates to “Yes”, subtly referencing the band’s conceptual roots and reinforcing their connection to the progressive rock tradition—both musically and philosophically.

If you enjoy 1970s progressive rock, melodic art rock, and albums that merge complexity with pop sensibility, Close to Edgh Today offers a compelling, forward-driven listening experience.
