lyrics

Taking the box with the powder and spoon over to the fire, you sprinkle one spoonful on the flames. A plume of red smoke erupts over the fire releasing a pleasant, scented fragrance as it does so. In the centre of the plume you see an image slowly forming. Within a few seconds the static image turns into a moving scene. A small man can be seen fighting what appears to be a Rock Troll. The man has almost lost the fight when he grabs a nearby torch and thrusts it towards the Troll’s face. Whilst watching this enacted scene you become aware of thoughts being placed within your mind: “Rock Trolls are afraid of fire” You have been forewarned and so forearmed.

The smoky plume erupts once more as you place another spoonful of the red powder on the ceremonial fire. This time, the vision that appears is of a hobgoblin. while you are concentrating on the smoky picture, the hobgoblin steps out of the smoke and rushes towards you, brandishing his sword. You find yourself surprised and on his first attack the hobgoblin hits you. You already feel the heat of the blood dripping from the wound on your shoulder. You step to one side to avoid his next charge, draw your sword and prepare to fight...

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

Dinosaurs and Dungeon Synth? PERFECT. This is the album that really got me into dungeon synth again and made me continue my dinosaur obsession. winstonrandom
