Double vinyl LP pressing. 2018 release. Ashes of Ares returns with the long-awaited follow-up to their self-titled debut album. Well of Souls presents an increased intensity and more wide-ranging sound which builds upon the foundation laid down by the first album and further solidifies Matt Barlow and Freddie Vidales partnership in writing. Former Ashes of Ares member and close friend Van Williams contributes the hammering drum beats while Jonah Weingarten sets the mood from the beginning with a stirring instrumental intro to the album. quot;Consuming The Manaquot; hits you right in the face with a tale of ancient Hawaiian warrior culture. quot;The Alienquot; follows with a technical mix of harmonies and riffs telling the story of the emergence of humanity s most powerful champion. quot;Unworthyquot; darkens the mood and sets the perfect background as someone battles his inner demons from being unleashed on the world. quot;Soul Searcherquot; with it s haunting acoustic sound conveys the loss of the betrayed storyteller. quot;Sun Dragonquot; picks up the pace while it narrates the path of an Earth-destroying phenomenon. quot;Transcendingquot; builds to a powerful hammering attack exemplifying the unrelenting fight so many are forced to endure. quot;Let All Despairquot; quot;In The Darknessquot; and quot;Spirit Of Manquot; are a trilogy in which the quot;Well of Soulsquot; holds the power to keep Earth from dying. The three songs start from a slow build to a driving pumping anthem and then to a melancholic ending where the survival of Earth is still in question. quot;Time Travelerquot; is a straight-forward power metal sci-fi journey through future generations. quot;The God of Warquot; is the heavy closer that lives up to it s name. The bonus track quot;You Know My Namequot; is a salute to the late Chris Cornell. As huge fans of the James Bond movie franchise and Mr. Cornell both Matt and Freddie agreed that their favorite theme song from quot;Casino Royalequot; played perfectly into this tribute.
