Act 2: The Blood and the Life Eternal
Act 2: The Blood and the Life Eternal is the second album by Neverending White Lights. Like their first album it features guest artists performing vocals; however, this album plays host to significantly more tracks sung by Daniel Victor than the first, which included only one. It is a strong progression in Victor's songwriting and production and brings out undertones of '80s ballad music, synth pads, faster tempos, and textured effects. A more focused and consistent album as a whole, it was released on October 30, 2007, in Canada to much critical acclaim. The first single off the album is "Always". The second single off the album is "The World Is Darker". The album also features a cover of the Hole song "Miss World".
