With Falls of Rauros' fourth full-length album, Vigilance Perennial, a vital complexity and multi-faceted emotion is at the forefront of this stunning quartet's musical creativity, drive and evolution. Ever since the opening notes of the Hail Wind and Hewn Oak debut, Falls of Rauros have never put on a mask to hide behind a false facade.

This music bleeds from the heart in a giving way
