Formerly best known as a doom metal band, While Heaven Wept have moved towards a new more progressive style of metal, and this album see's little trace of their Doom roots.
One criticism is the length of the album - only 7 songs ! Admittedly, the last song (Finality) is eleven minutes long, but you're still only looking at 37 minutes of music in total.
I have to be brutally honest and say that I was very disappointed in this album - the songs lack sufficient variation and tend to blur into one another, and there is little here that I'd class as memorable. Certainly a short time after listening to the album none of the songs stick in the mind.
