While Heaven Wept Suspended At Aphelion

2014, Virginia's long running epic metal legends are commemorating their 25th year with the release of their sixth full length album SUSPENDED AT APHELION. The latest album is undoubtedly their most ambitious, epic, and progressive album so far featuring a single track divided into eleven parts, performed by the entire FEAR OF INFINITY line-up as well as several esteemed guests, including Fates Warning alumni drummer Mark Zonder and co-founding guitarist Victor Arduini - uniting two eras of Fates Warning for the first time ever. The signature sound of While Heaven Wept remains fully intact, yet has evolved; it's the first album featuring all-new material composed in this decade (as opposed to previous releases which often culled from years of archival material), it's full of twists, turns, modulations, time changes, harmonic content rarely heard in metal, and tons of counterpoint. This is all augmented by actual cellos, violins, classical guitars, an array of percussion, and genuine analog synths.
