Continuing the A-Z Challenge from Arlee at Tossing it Out
Today is W - While Heaven Wept
Today is W - While Heaven Wept
During this A-Z challenge, I've tried to turn you on to new and unique media. As we have now reached W, I would like to give your ears a treat and talk about a spectacular metal release by the band "While Heaven Wept." Their latest effort "Vast Oceans Lachrymose" is an amazing aural journey. This conceptual album tells the story of a young man setting off to sea in search of treasure and fame but, in the end, finding only despair. Clocking in at a lean 40 minutes, this is truly an amazing piece of work for metal fans. The music travels the gambit from blistering and fierce to achingly beautiful. In fact, I can honestly say that it is the most beautiful metal I have ever heard. I know that seems like a paradox, but the band achieves something that few bands of the genre have been able to accomplish.
If you are a metal fan and would like a truly unique experience, then I urge you to check out this amazing disc by "While Heaven Wept."
