2 is the third solo album by Symphony X guitarist Michael Romeo, released on 25 March 2022 via Inside Out Music.

[6][4] Like its predecessor, the album is inspired by the homonymous novel by H. G. Wells and, according to Romeo, "it takes the first record deeper into the journey.

He praised Romeo for remaining "an Olympic gold medalist in lead guitar, but more importantly, he continues to fine-tune and push his skills as a composer."

He conceded that the album bears some similarities with Romeo's main band Symphony X, but compared it favorably to other contemporary symphonic metal efforts.

He summarized his review calling the album "a world-shaking fusion of cinematic symphony with the very best of modern progressive metal".
