MarsDragoner Such a ghastly and foreboding experience. I'm imagining walking through moonlit forests, cobbled and run down paths and past ruined temples, never alone. There is a constant sense of macabre and twisted beauty on this album. Just close your eyes and let yourself be taken by the now nameless spirits and spectres of the past. Favorite track: Gratitude 感謝の念.

Noctis the winter knight Awesome songs with a unique essence Favorite track: Jujutsu 呪術.

reb1138 Excellent atmosphere, I would label this as "kabuki ambient" with horror elements.

5/5 Favorite track: Dilemma 窮地.

karmafish This is an impressive record by Goryō adding some bewitching eastern elements in the DS scene. Julien Lacroix presents a fantastic use of percussion and a fine blend of woodwind ambience and haunting melodic patterns on shamisen/koto. \m/ Favorite track: Appearance 現れ.

about

The darkness into which this demon carries me is true to my dreams. Why give him this trust? What spells can bring me back to the starting point, far from here?

I hear him, he approaches me. Its strength must be chosen in everything, every object, every gesture. I have been sure of it since I had this dream. I could not say if it is our reality but it is there. There is this monk who has to come and perform an exorcism with another inhabitant of the village. Will he also come to see me?

I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature. emanuele127

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
