Forgive Us Our Trespasses is the second studio album by the American post-metal band A Storm of Light. The song "Tempest" was made into a music video, directed by the guitarist/vocalist Josh Graham.[3] The lyrics and album artwork depict environmental and post-apocalyptic themes, including references to the 'Sixth Extinction'[4] alluded to in the Red Sparowes album At the Soundless Dawn, an album also featuring Graham.
