I came back here after years of not listening to this... this is still one of best albums ive ever heard so far... the style of ur music guys is so unique... the vibe, sound and mood and heaviness is amazing
Thanks for the kind words! We're glad you stumbled across us as well :) Excited to have you along for the journey! And if you're interested in reading some of the backstory to this record, it can be found here: facebook.com/notes/the-wise-mans-fear/castle-in-the-clouds-album-liner-notesstory/443130299182359/
One of my top 5 favourite albums ever. And it's even more enjoyable when you read the whole storyline behind every song. Can't wait for new material from these guys!
I found out about this band only because Cody messaged me on Facebook so many years and tbh I haven't listened in a while but man I'm missing out on some extreme music. Thanks Cody for messaging me back in the day. I hope you all are doing great and I can't wait for new music!
Thanks dude!! We're wrapping up the final 3 songs on the new record at the end of March, then it just needs to be mixed and mastered! We're shooting for an early summer/late spring release. Our new single comes out this Friday!
0:00 Megalith 1:53 Secret of the Stone 4:59 In Reach (Out of Touch) 8:50 With My Lesser Self 12:55 Prayer of the Prey 16:06 Chaotica 19:36 The Sea at Storm 22:19 Wrath of a Gentle Man 25:41 The Moonless Night 29:04 Vitality 32:08 Castle in the Clouds
I'm pretty stoked I found you guys. A band in my favorite genre named after my favorite book series? Fuck yeah. Keep doing what you do guys, this shit is dope.
This album is among my three favorite metal core albums at the moment… 1. ‘Fantasy’ - LANDMVRKS 2. ‘Perception’ - Breakdown of Sanity 3. ‘Castle in the Clouds’ - The Wise Man’s Fear
We'd love to!! We've got some friends who live up there and we've been meaning to put together a show there for a while now. If you have any leads on a good promoter or bands who would want to play with us hit us up!
Email us at thewisemansfearband@gmail.com and we'll put you in our contacts sheet! Would love to have someone local to the area if we ever head down there.
Okay so "with my lesser self" is an awesome song, it sound creative and the vocal sound impressive i really love this. It's just regrettable that every other song sound like 1000 others metalcore bands with the high pitch clean vocal burning my ears. So, why "with my lesser self" is the only song like that? and When in the process of doing a metal album doing that girly clean vocal type sound a good idea? really i just don't understand the reason. Thanks guys
? That's the whole point of metalcore tho? Mixing harsh vocals with cleans, that's also why there are subgenres in metal, for people to choose which one they like the most, so if one wants only gultural/heavy vocals just gotta go to deathcore bands. Also, I don't see how they're like other 1.000 metalcore bands, their sound is quite distinctive, if there's other bands that mix fantasy elements in their music so well as these guys please tell me their names since that stuff is my shit and I would love to hear more great music.

One of my favorite albums...ever. When I find a record that I don't want to skip any song on even after hearing it so many times...you cherish it lol
What a grand slam of an album. The story telling makes it even more enjoyable, several songs gave me chills. Keep up the great work!
