in 2002, Parallel Or 90 Degrees keyboardist Andy Tillison, along with Sam Baine, Guy Manning, Roine Stolt (The Flower Kings), Jonas Reingold, Zoltan Csörsz and David Jackson (Van der Graaf Generator), formed the British progressive rock band The Tangent. The band was supposed to be a one-off side project, but has since produced ten official studio albums and a number of live albums. In 2003 they released their debut album, The Music That Died Alone, but it was never released on vinyl.
"The Music That Died Alone" is available on vinyl for the first time in a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on Crystal Clear, Silver & Blue Marbled vinyl. The vinyl packaging includes an insert with lyrics.
