Celestial is the second and final full-length studio album by Circle X, released in 1994.
After experimenting and releasing EPs for more than a decade, Celestial marked the band's first major release since Prehistory in 1983.
Celestial is regarded as "showcasing the diverse, honed ideas in an impressive cycle of thought-provoking bludgeons and sublime dirges", and "Circle X made it seem like no wave never went away."
The album would be the last album by Circle X, due to the death of founding member and guitarist Bruce Witsiepe from HIV complications in 1995.
