Stars Wept To The Sea on LP

The most impressive part of Stars Wept to the Sea is the depth of sound. The exquisite layering is exemplified right at the start with the grandiose orchestral introduction. I'm assuming a lot of this is electronically produced, but if you don't let silly things like that bother you, it's a miraculously full sounding production. Though just about every song has an explosive build up, the single "Stardust" has one of those simple but memorable riffs that is perfect for tapping the gunpowder. The back half of the album (besides the epic conclusion) is mostly occupied by the atmospheric stuff, really digging you into the intended frame of mind. If you're just craving blast beats, you'll see there's benefit to holding back for a few minutes
