Knight Of A Dark Grail (Promo) [Remaster]

by Jim Kirkwood

zsmith666 One listen and it's clear how this guy progenerated an entire genre. Favorite track: The Black Gate Opens - Elven Smiths / Narya (from the album "Where Shadows Lie").

Seth D (Auldwav) I love it. Perfect for the Halloween season (or any time really). Ample Berlin School vibes. Favorite track: Sighing Desert - The Edge Of Reason (from the album "Master of Dragons").

Televiper Kirkwood: innovator and early master of the form. Music for the deepest dreams and darkest dungeons. Favorite track: Sighing Desert - The Edge Of Reason (from the album "Master of Dragons").

Wound of Briccius This is THE Dungeon Synth album that lead me down the amazing rabbit hole for this music genre! The fact that it got a remaster is proof that the DS community is the best one out there. "The Black Gate Opens" is one of the most iconic DS songs out there, and this album, as well as any album by Kirkwood is perfect for those who are just getting into DS. I can't wait for the rest of Kirkwood's albums to get this same remaster treatment! Favorite track: The Black Gate Opens - Elven Smiths / Narya (from the album "Where Shadows Lie").

Maxine Machina Such a beautiful album. Kirkwood has been producing dungeon synth for many years, and it clearly shows in the refinement of these tracks. Really wonderful and cohesive work. Favorite track: Glorfindel (from the album "King Of The Golden Hall").

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly

If nostalgia for an age where creatures of myth walked together with the children of men had a soundtrack, this album would be it. Also, a touching reminder that we can forego wealth and power for wilderness and freedom, if we so choose. emanuele127
