    About this album

    Mainstream is Quiet Sun’s singular 1975 album, a cult favourite that turns prog-rock complexity into something brisk, inventive and sharply detailed. Formed by musicians with links to Matching Mole, Camel and Roxy Music, the band brought together art-rock precision, psychedelic colour and jazz-leaning improvisation without losing momentum or bite. The record’s compact length and strong sense of arrangement give it a focused energy unusual for the genre, while its flashes of humour and melodic flair make it stand out from more self-important progressive releases of the era. Mainstream has since become one of the most admired one-album statements in British progressive rock.
