Pallas (2)

Pallas formed in Aberdeen, Scotland (1976) as Rainbow. Changed name to Pallas, after Ritchie Blackmore used the Rainbow name. They were part of the second-wave revival of prog rock in the UK along with bands like [a=Marillion], [a=Pendragon (3)] and [a=IQ (7)]. After their third studio album, interest from their record company and music press waned and the band found itself in a semi-dormant state, though re-issues of their back catalogue kept their name alive. Pallas made a comeback in 1998 and due to a dedicated cult following have been able to tour and record semi-consistently ever since.
