Symphony X is an American progressive/power metal band from New Jersey founded in 1994 by guitarist Michael Romeo.

They play in a very syncopated, progressive fashion, also incorporating elements of symphonic metal into their sound. Their music contains strong neoclassical elements in line with the music of Yngwie Malmsteen, Randy Rhoads and other influential neoclassical metal artists. To date, the band has recorded 8 studio albums and also released one live album Live On The Edge Of Forever. Symphony X latest album was released June 2011, entitled Iconoclast.
