Album of the Week: Lord of the Lost’s Empyrean

I was browsing YouTube, just selecting various videos related to whatever I was watching at the time, and I came across the song “Raining Stars.” I fell head over heels. I’ve been listening to Lord of the Lost ever since. I chose Empyrean as my album of the week because it contains the aforementioned track.
