Album Review

WHILE HEAVEN WEPT from US are back with a new 40 minutes track in eleven parts album. The album is a mix of many different genres. There are quiet parts with violin, piano and cello and parts that are close to Death Metal, Progressive Metal, Doom Metal or Classic Metal. The drum parts of the album are played by the legendary Mark Zonder (FATES WARNINF, WARLORD) because due to some serious reasons Trevor Schrotz (the drummer of the band) couldn't play. Also another special guest is the ex-FATES WARNING guitarist Victor Arduini. Those two special guests for sure will attract some FATES WARNING fans and probably will help the band win some new fans. The production is very good and highlights the rich sound of the band. Keyboards, guitars, violins, piano, drums, vocals everything in perfect combination gives a unique result and when the album ends makes us want more, let's say that the only negative part of the album is that it is only 40 minutes. 'Suspended At Aphelion' is one of the best albums for 2014,an album that makes us anxiously awaiting the next essay by Tom Philip and his band.
