Search - While Heaven Wept :: Fear Of Infinity

Throughout the history of heavy metal, there have been bands that were content to follow trends, and those who swore allegiance to a single genre, but only a select few that chose to blaze a path of their own. For the past 21 years, While Heaven Wept have committed to nothing but heart and soul, resulting in melodic, deeply emotive, intelligent metal that spans numerous subgenres, defiant of categorization. Early in their existence, the band, along with a handful of others, contributed to the very definition of `epic metal', yet WHW have long since developed a sound entirely their own. The current lineup can be considered something of a supergroup, consisting of past and present members of well-respected underground luminaries such as Twisted Tower Dire, Solstice (UK), Altura, Brave, October 31, and Revelation. With their Nuclear Blast debut, Fear of Infinity, While Heaven Wept present their most aggressive and incredibly beautiful album to date, featuring all the hallmarks of the "WHW sound" - sweeping dramatic soundscapes juxtaposed against crushing epic melodic metal, overflowing with emotion. Strangely familiar, yet like nothing else, this is the sound of heaven weeping.
