None.

This album is very poor when compared to The Latter Rain

09 - Wayphearing Stranger

The track is actually Wayfaring Stranger, a folk song of unknown origin, that has been performed by many artists. As far as the album is concerned, Captivating Solitude is the best track on the album for me.

This band has some sweet riffs and solos but some awful vocals and choruses in some parts, which make for a couple pretty fucking terrible songs.

Saw them supporting Orphaned Land a couple of weeks ago and was blown away by Captivating Solitude live; given it a couple of listens and it's a hell of a song, I should probably check out the rest of this album

Indeed. Really good live band. Opening with Against The Grain (on AEnigma) was a killer move.

Easily my favourite song by them, it was awesome but did leave a very high standard for the rest of the set to live up to.
