Red has always released projects that are highly conceptual in nature. Of Beauty and Rage is no exception, with the tracks carefully ordered to craft a story of diving into the darkest corners of the soul in order to find the light of redemption. The narrative is shaped by three eerie, almost otherworldly instrumental tracks: "Descent," "The Forest" and "Ascent." "Descent" marks the immersion of the soul into the shadows where it is forced to face itself, "The Forest" comes in the middle of the wandering and "Ascent" paints a musical picture of hope at the conclusion.
