Like 2010's Heliocentric, the first part of the band's 2010 double album critiquing Christianity. As someone coming to The Ocean's catalogue late and through Pelagial, I can definitely hear in Heliocentric some foreshadowing of the masterpiece to come: big, heavy riffs; the contrast of said heavy riffs with some piano and strings; the weaving of lyrics around a central concept.
If you're going to check out Heliocentric (and why wouldn't you?) you had best start at what is essentially the start with second track and true album opener "Firmament". It's just heavenly.
