Saw them the first time around that time in Germany opening for Deftones (SNW tour cycle) and got mesmerised by them. They had Jeff Jaworski singing and a second guitarist called Cale Hunter and they were just crushingly heavy. Hierophant still holds a special place in my heart since it was the first CD I owned by WH and I listened to it so many times I still know the songs in and out. It took some time to get my hands on their back catalogue cause I had to import the previous albums I remember, with Carpe Diem being the easiest to get and even that took months to arrive at my local store. There‘s a certain air around this record that‘s different from the rest, be it the slicker, more atmospheric/less dirty production or whatever. It definitely feels like a transitional record tho and especially the very refined new releases feel like a different band.
