El Cielo is the second album from the American progressive/alternative rock band, dredg. It was released on October 8, 2002, by Interscope Records.[10] Like dredg's first album, Leitmotif, El Cielo is a concept album. The title can be translated to mean "the sky" or "the heaven" in Spanish, and to mean "peace and freedom of expression" in dreams.
