Part 6/9:

Styx consistently released albums from 1972 up to 1983, garnering continued success. The band’s musical style was often categorized as "prog rock," but DeYoung felt their sound encompassed a wider range of influences including hard rock and pop. This genre-bending approach was not just a mark of their versatility but also a reflection of their creative processes together as a band. DeYoung proudly notes the distinction in their hits, from "Renegade" to "Mr. Roboto," asserting that, despite their varying sounds, they all belonged to Styx.
