Sonic Perspectives is a renowned brand that offers a comprehensive range of music-related content, including news, album reviews, interviews, concert reviews, and exclusive features. With a focus on delivering high-quality editorial content, Sonic Perspectives keeps music enthusiasts engaged and informed. One notable project that has gained attention is Richard West's vanity project turned band, Oblivion Protocol.

Richard, known as the keyboardist, composer, and background vocalist for the British prog-metal band Threshold, embarked on this endeavor after a rejected idea from his main band. Oblivion Protocol's album, The Fall of the Shires, is set to be released on August 18 through Atomic Fire Records. It serves as a sequel to Threshold's 2017 concept album, Legends Of The Shires, delivering a dense and climactic sound reminiscent of Rush, Steven Wilson, Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon, and Ghost.

To offer a unique listening experience, The Fall of the Shires combines clever nods and references to its predecessor, exploring darker themes and consequences. The album will be available in CD-digipak, LP (Green), and digital formats, allowing fans to choose their preferred way of enjoying the music. In addition to Richard West, Oblivion Protocol features three renowned musicians: guitarist Ruud Jolie (Within Temptation), bassist Simon Andersson (Darkwater), and drummer Darby Todd (Devin Townsend).

Karl Groom, from Threshold, also contributes enthralling guitar solos to the record.
