Эта недолговечная команда была ответвлением валлийской психоделик- группы 70-х «Man». Двое из участников «Man»: клавишник Phil Ryan и гитарист/басист Will Youatt создали в 1973 году команду «The Neutrons», пригласив барабанщика John Weathers («Gentle Giant»), скрипача Stuart Gordon («The Incredible String Band») и других музыкантов. В то время как музыка «Man» была преимущественно гитарной, «The Neutrons» использовали в основном клавишные с характерными моментами из брит-фолка. Их первый альбом «Black Hole Stars» представляет интересный клавишный псих-прог с хорошими гитарными партиями. Второй альбом «Tales From The Blue Cocoons» получился более коммерческим.
