Tesseract: War of Being: Collector's Hardback Book Limited Edition (Blu-ray Audio)

Welcome To The War Of Being, The New Album From British Prog-Metal Pioneers Tesseract.'The Strangeland' Collector's 3 Disc, 68 Page Hardback Book Edition. Strictly Limited To 1500 Copies Worldwide. Since 2018's Sonder, TesseracT have risen to new heights across the globe, consistently smashing through glass ceilings and touring arenas with the likes of Bullet for My Valentine, Dream Theater and Gojira. All in addition to being established high-profile festival headliners themselves. On their fifth studio album, War Of Being, TesseracT return with a career-high release that is their most conceptual, dynamic and sonically complex to date. The story revolves around an inter-dimensional journey undertaken by two characters (ex and el), within The Strangeland, a world made to reflect the socio-economic state of our own. Throughout it's hour-long run time, the band treat listeners to sprawling atmospherics, impassioned vocal performances from Daniel Tompkins and atom bomb level heavy riffs. The band have long been an innovative entity and with War Of Being prove they have become masters of a truly unique sound. The album begins with the reverie shattering 'Natural Disaster', followed by the pendulum swing of 'Legion'. That slingshots us into the herculean title track - the album's 11 minute centrepiece that undulates with precision and power. When coupled with the beguiling melodies of 'The Grey', or the unshielded honesty of 'Burden', the band deliver their most impassioned release to date - an album to excite and inspire. Acle Kahney, Daniel Tompkins, Amos Williams, Jay Postones, and James Monteith truly have crafted a phenomenal set of immersive, absorbing sounds. War Of Being was recorded at Middle Farm Studios in the UK. The record was co-produced and engineered by the band and Peter Miles (Dodie, Sylosis, Architects) along with his long-time collaborator Katherine Marsh of Choir Noir (Bring Me The Horizon, Architects, Marillion).
