Scott's Instrumental Metal Track of the Day - Challenger: Part Two - A Swan Song by We Lost the Sea

We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them
as they prepared for their journey and waved goodbye
and "slipped the surly bonds of earth" to "touch the face of God."

Today's Instrumental Metal Track is a beautiful track by the Australian band We Lost the Sea. Challenger: Part Two - Swan Song is the closing track off of their 2015 album Departure Songs. This two part song pays homage to the Challenger explosion and the astronauts who lost their lives. The song and album ends with the emotional words of President Ronald Reagan honoring the brave astronauts who paid the ultimate price in the name of exploration and progress of mankind.
