Weald + Woe’s third full-length, Far From the Light of Heaven, sees the castle metal band’s steel as sharp as ever. Offering more musical variation through a collaborative writing process, Far From the Light of Heaven showcases Weald + Woe’s signature melodic medieval black metal sound while featuring elements of folk, power, trad and prog; their siege weapons are harder, faster, and heavier. Conceptually, the album tackles the spiritual cost of fighting for the good of the realm: is it worth it in the end?
