A Storm of Light

About

The world is coming to an end. This probably isn't true (at least for the next few thousand years) but it's what the New York based progressive metal band A Storm of Light would like you to believe. The group creates quasi-rock operas that center around the apocalypse and post-apocalyptic life as the members of A Storm of Light predict it to become. While there is something fantasy-like about the band's themes and lyrics, the four-piece's instrumentals are extremely straight-laced and with tinges of post-rock drone, A Storm of Light manages to come across as a paranoid rock band that's unafraid to indulge in its conspiracy theories and end of time delusions.
