A Legacy Revisited
First released in May 2000, the debut album, *Deltron 3030*, was not a commercial blockbuster but quickly garnered critical acclaim. Peaking at number 194 on the Billboard 200 and number 18 on the Independent Albums chart, the concept album intertwines sharp social critiques with humor, set against beats that narrate a dystopian future envisioned in the year 3030.
Looking Ahead
Following the release of *Deltron 3030*, the group entered a period of relative inactivity until they resurfaced in 2013 with a sequel entitled *Event 2*, which achieved a better commercial reception, reaching number 41 on the Billboard 200. Their most recent release was a live album titled *Live* in 2016. Now, with hints towards a new studio record, fans are eager for updates, although new music is anticipated to follow the upcoming tour.
