Golden Age of Music is the first studio album by Arjen Lucassen's Supersonic Revolution. It was released on 19 May 2023 by Music Theories.[1] The album focuses on the 1970s and is musically highly inspired by music from the 1970s, ranging from progressive rock to heavy metal to glam rock.

The project arose from a request of a German music magazine who asked Lucassen for a cover version. He instead proposed to record one for them and with a deadline of one week quickly put together a band with some of his favorite musicians.[1] After recording a cover of ZZ Top's "Heard It on the X", they decided to form a band and record a studio album.

The cover art is designed by Claudio Bergamin. Like the songs, the cover art contains many references to media from the 1970s. This includes references to Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy and Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow.
