Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition from the choral intro of Viderunt te aquæ into the frantic, double-bass drumming of Arising Thunder.
The delicate piano melody in Lease of Life that slowly blooms into a soaring, mid-tempo power ballad.
The intricate interplay between the tribal percussion and heavy riffs during the bridge of The Rage of the Waters.
