Planet Gemini is the second studio album by American heavy metal musician Michael Angelo Batio. Produced and entirely performed by Batio (save for "No Boundaries Part II"),[1] it was released in 1997 by M.A.C.E. Music.[2] The album was reissued in 2006,[3] and two of the ten tracks ("Time Traveler" and "Planet Gemini") were later remixed and remastered for the 2007 compilation album 2 X Again.[4] "Time Traveler" has also been included on the Metal Method instructional video album Speed Kills 2010.[5]

Style and reception

A review for Guitar Nine Records describes Planet Gemini as having "a very progressive, hard edged sound from beginning to end", identifying the title track and "Time Traveler" as particular highlights of the album.[6]
