Sounds great, but unlike previous albums!

Nearly three years has taken it to Tom Phillips and his band While Heaven Wept come up with a new album around the corner. Especially in the sector of epic Heavy Metals A lot has happened. A band like Atlantean Kodex could throw a powerful pounds in the balance here. Let's see if the veterans While Heaven Wept, with its more progressive orientation, can keep up.

Yes, they can!

Suspended At Aphelion should actually be seen as a single long song, which is divided into eleven chapters. In fact, the album also makes a very closed impression and real vulnerabilities are barely visible. To record the album, the band has the Fates Warning drummer Mark Zonder brought into the studio, which has then also eingezimmert a majority of the songs and left with his powerful game directly its fragrance brand in sound.

After seemingly classic intro Introspectus the band increases with the powerful and very poignant song Icarus And I directly with a hammer song in the album. The poignant attribute I do not choose often, but alone is the beautiful singing of Rain Irving paired with the guitar melody is more than worth listening to. Here also the great sound of the album is striking. Toll how fine the individual instruments have been worked out in production.

Really progressively it then goes to the instrumental part of the album. Despite indifferent Turnend Paralysis affects at no time somehow overly intellectual. As already on other albums create Whiteheaven world always keep the thread and to give the listener a very emotional album at hand!

Toll!
