About

Lyrically, the album is a concept album telling a fictional story of a race of beings from another world, exiled and forced with a new beginning to live on another planet. [ [http://www.vesperiansorrow.net/press.asp ::Official Site of Vesperian Sorrow:: ] ] The ending song is the climax to the album when the new race conquers their enemies and are free to rule their new homeland. [ [http://www.vesperiansorrow.net/press.asp ::Official Site of Vesperian Sorrow:: ] ] The album was supposed to be a 2005 release on the liner notes to the album but was not available to the public until May 2006. [ [http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=118496 Encyclopaedia Metallum - Vesperian Sorrow - Regenesis Creation ] ] Before the release of the album, the band toured the UK, the USA and Canada to promote the album. [ [http://www.vesperiansorrow.net/band.asp ::Official Site of Vesperian Sorrow:: ] ] The album received rave reviews from critics for a second time regarding them as "one of the best black metal bands in the country". [ [http://www.vesperiansorrow.net/press.asp ::Official Site of Vesperian Sorrow:: ] ] The album is known for having a powerfully symphonic and melodic sound as well as sounding like a Scandinavian band has made the album. [ [http://www.vesperiansorrow.net/press.asp ::Official Site of Vesperian Sorrow:: ] ] Most reviewers criticized the use of keyboards and thought they were overpowering the album, nonetheless it only adds to the music and gives off a powerful sensation to the music. [ [http://www.vesperiansorrow.net/press.asp ::Official Site of Vesperian Sorrow:: ] ] "Quest of the Exiled" is the most requested song for the band to play live and is Donn Donni's favorite song Vesperian Sorrow has written.
