After almost a decade, Canadian Progressive Metal band Anciients are returning to the U.S. for a tour. Starting next week, they will be introducing audiences to their JUNO Award-winning album, Beyond the Reach of the Sun. They’ve also released a new video for the album track, “Is it Your God”, which questions the existence of a higher power.
Kenny Cook (vocals, guitar) says about the track:
This song asks how someone can believe in a higher power when given a life full of despair and anguish. Do you continue to restrict your happiness while living this life, in hopes of joy for eternity? Or do you question whether it’s all for nothing?
