As most SON OF AURELIUS fans already know, the band runs a weekly podcast, called the “Aurelicast”. This week’s episode is particularly special, as it also serves as the band’s official track-by-track explanation for their new album Under A Western Sun, out June 3rd. Hear the band detail the writing and recording process behind each track, as well as cover other topics like current music news, fan questions, etc. Take a listen here via SoundCloud.
Guitarist Cary Geare figured the “Aurelicast” was a more personal way to share the album information with fan.“The new podcast episode is all about the album, lots of concept and production stuff. We wanted to talk about the writing process, and throw a few teasers in there.”

Under A Western Sun builds upon the basis of the band’s existing sound while boasting clear musical growth and a fairly substantial change in style. Last week, SON OF AURELIUS released a brand new track, entitled ‘Long Ago’ via HeavyBlogisHeavy.com. The band has also released two other exclusive tracks, including ‘Clouded Panes’ via MetalSucks.net here, and an ‘A Great Liberation’ as an “anti-lyric video” viaMetalInjection.net!
Under A Western Sun is an independent project – no crowd funding and no record label, with co-production from Zack Ohren at Castle Ultimate Studios. Under A Western Sun comes four years after the band’s breakout album, 2010’s The Farthest Reaches, an album Ultimate-Guitar.com touted as, “insane… every metal fan should listen”, and Metal Injection called, “one of the most gushed-about death metal records of the year”.
