The New EP: THE BURDEN OF KNOWING
The new Myspace music player seems to be suffering some malfunction as the tracks that we have offered as free downloads are not currently downloadable. As an alternative you can get the record in 256kps Mp3 format by clicking on the EP cover. A lossless version will be seeding soon. We apologize for the hiccup and will be setting up a permanent home for the files, as well as other Neverlasting Music releases, Remix packs, etc soon.
Thanks again for listening.
"Sorrow Has A Perfect End has yielded a new beast and one that rivals some of the best work ever done in the electronica/ambient/alternative genre. Beneath the perceived anger and chaos of Sorrow Has A Perfect End's sound, lies a beauty and salvation for those patient enough to discover it."
Marty Butcher (www.metalreviews.com)
Sorrow Has a Perfect End is an evolutionary adaptation of a band once known as ShAPE. Sorrow’s genetic drift began in 2007 founded by Singer/Songwriter Starsky Partridge. Known for his work as a video game composer and sound designer on The Unreal Series (PC/Xbox) and most recently on Fatal Inertia (Xbox360/PS3), Partridge has elected to redirect his talents inward for his most recent offering: “tHE fEASTINGâ€. Mixed in chest pounding Dolby 5.1, the songs combine schizophrenic electronics with insidious guitar and tooth rattling beats. The DVD selectionhref="http:s are accompanied by custom animations meant to enhance the listening experience. tHE fEASTING is a sonically breathtaking album that is moody, angry and hopeful all in the same breath. DVD extras include:
·Bonus tracks ·Photo slideshows ·Live footage of Sorrow’s first gig ·DVD ROM content including uncompressed .WAV files that may be used to create your own audio CD's or for use in MP3 players........... Awake......... Rise.
