There are two bands with this title, a well-known metal band from the East Coast of the US and an obscure (and now defunct) rock band from the Midwestern US.

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

Their 1997 album The Divine Wings of Tragedyimg and their 2000 release V: The New Mythology Suiteimg have gained the band considerable attention within the progressive metal community. Musically Symphony X is similar to, although heavier than most other progressive metal bands to which they are commonly compared: Dream Theaterimg, Fates Warning and Pain of Salvationimg. 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 Malmsteenimg, Randy Rhoads and other influential neoclassical metal artists.

To date, the band has recorded 9 studio albums and also released one live album Live on the Edge of Foreverimg. Symphony X's latest album was released July 2015, titled Underworld.
