Ostara's eight album is an uncompromising confrontation with the Zeitgeist, brimming from start to endwith a sense of tragic urgency. Inspired by the Sturm und Drang movement, singer songwriter, RichardLeviathan, weaves a barbed thread through the centuries, from the battle cry of the Norse god Wielandto the contemporary echoes of failed Utopias, mass Narcissism, the loss of love and the death of hope.
