    About this album

    Hydra finds Toto sharpening the glossy pop-rock formula that made their debut stand out, while pushing into tougher, more dramatic territory. Released in 1979, the album was produced by Toto with Tom Knox and showcases the band’s tightly controlled musicianship, layered harmonies and polished studio craft. Its best-known song, 99, became a signature track and helped give the album its lasting profile, while cuts such as St. George and the Dragon underline the group’s knack for concise hooks and muscular arrangements. Hydra reinforced Toto’s reputation as a technically formidable band able to balance commercial melody with prog-leaning precision.

    Genre: Pop & Rock
