Vehemence - Helping the World to See LP
Small/minor corner dings due to shipping from label. I can send pictures upon request.
As Vehemence galvanized through a touring cycle supporting the first Metal Blade Records released album, "God Was Created", the band took musical ideas that pushed the band dynamic further forward and streamlined the songwriting process to generate the next collection of songs: "Helping The World To See".
The band pushed ahead with steadfast determination to create songs that captured the melodic and brutal soundscapes that were presented in the previous material, while diversifying the lyrics to encapsulate individual topics. Source material for the imagery presented in these songs were the headlines of the era. Terrorist attacks, infanticide, depression and insanity, televangelism, and other atrocities became the real life horror presented in the realities that Vehemence was "helping the world to see".
Each song highlights the individual strengths of each band member, and showcase a group of individuals that truly joined together in harmony when performing together.
The artwork for the album was another highlight, as the band were able to enlist the service of Wes Benscoter. His concept for the art was pulled directly from the album title and presents a bold image to represent the sound contained within.
