Spock’s Beard (album)

Spock's Beard er det selvtitulerte, niende studioalbumet til det amerikanske progrock-bandet Spock's Beard.

Bakgrunnen for navnet
Den 21. september 2006 la bassist Dave Meros ut en tentativ låtrekkefølge på bandets nettsted, og ga samtidig følgende grunn for et selvtitulert album:

«As you probably know by now, we're calling our 9th studio release simply Spock's Beard. No big heavy reasoning behind that, really, it just seemed like a cool thing to do. (Of course, you are more than welcome to help us invent some heavy philosophical or hidden meaning so we'll have something interesting to say in interviews...)

There are a few cool song titles that could have become the CD title (see below) but we've done that a lot before. Then there is the obvious "SB9" and it's variations, or the clever play on words thing, like nein or asinine or something like that.

But, in the end, we decided to just not name it at all. We saved all of our energy for the CD itself. It's going to be one big, fat CD filled to the brim with close to 78 minutes of material.»
