Lament for the Weary

Lament for the Weary is Christian thrash metal band Seventh Angel's second studio album, released in late 1991 on Music for Nations.

Lament for the Weary is a concept album about a man who suffered abuse during childhood and struggles with depression and suicidal thoughts in adulthood.

The guitars were tuned down to D, and the compositions include acoustic passages such as on the title track, driven with a samples of raining to create a melancholic atmosphere.

In 2008, a remaster was released by Polish label Metal Mind Productions, which was limited to 2,000 copies and included the demo song "The Turning Tide" as a bonus track.

In the 2018 reissue liner notes for Lament for the Weary, Ian Arkley writes: "The recordings we ended up with are something I am still very proud of.
