Sonic Origami
album by Uriah Heep
Sonic Origami is the 20th studio album by British rock band Uriah Heep and was released in September 1998.
The opening track, "Between Two Worlds", is dedicated to David Byron and Gary Thain, both members of Uriah Heep who died at a young age. It is the final Uriah Heep album to feature long-standing drummer Lee Kerslake, due to ill health forcing his departure from the band in 2007.
The limited-edition version of the CD contains one additional track.

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Sonic Origami” is album by Uriah Heep. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Sonic, Origami and album, not as a finished interpretation.
Why this record matters
The phrase “album by Uriah Heep” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Reception evidence should be dated and situated: later canonical status may differ sharply from the work’s initial circulation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 7, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2731492. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1998 and 2007.
Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
