Virginia's long running epic metal legends are commemorating their 25th year with the release of their sixth full length album "Suspended At Aphelion" via Nuclear Blast this October.

Today the band releases the official lyric video for the track 'Souls In Permafrost' taken from their upcoming new record "Suspended At Aphelion".

Commented guitarist, keyboardist & vocalist Tom Philips: "Part 7 of "Suspended At Aphelion" is one of my favorite parts and epitomizes the madness of the album - this is what I've meant about music moving in every direction and intense counterpoint - with the angular guitar lines, Jim's serpentine bassline, the gothic choir chants all juxtaposed beneath Rain's lead vocal, this 'rough edit' of 'Permafrost' is about as complex as it gets without being overtly technical/self-aggrandizing...plus it provides a 'sneak peak' into what is to come with Part 8 as well!"

About WHILE HEAVEN WEPT's latest album (comprised of a single track divided into 11 parts), guitarist & songwriter Tom Phillips has previously stated: "We all have dreams, aspirations, and desires. Most of us pursue them with passion... with all the strength, faith, and hope that we can find inside of ourselves. Unfortunately, sometimes this isn't enough, and we ultimately have to come to terms with that which is unreachable. "Suspended At Aphelion" is the story of one such dream, but it will resonate differently for each listener. We all have our suns that remain untouchable."
