baboonsandmoons These somewhat hidden gems are my favorite. An intensely thematic, thoroughly gorgeous synth album with plenty of atmosphere -- and it begs to be put on loop. Favorite track: II: In Great Halls Ov Old Kings.

steeltownerick The ambience is phenomenal.

The packages and extras were all also amazing, truly. However, I can't bear to break the wax seal on the case. I'll keep listening to the digital copy for now. Favorite track: II: In Great Halls Ov Old Kings.

wyndcrawler presents some really epic ambient in this album. brings to mind imagery of misty castles and forgotten battlefields. it's definitely a concept type of album that is best listened to in it's entirety to let the mood be fully absorbed and experienced

Evergreen This album really nailed an inexplicable atmosphere that I really love. I bought the tape on a whim and I couldn’t be happier.

Kaptain Carbon Obsidian Swords For The Heavendwellers ( cool album name) is a tribute to both acts like Neptune Towers as well ads the newer dark ambient inspired acts like Old Tower. Wyndcrawler’s embrace of both melody and darkness results in a release that is less apart of the dark dungeons than it is the cold forest floor in the deep of winter. Favorite track: II: In Great Halls Ov Old Kings.

about

Too many years ago to tell
Claws cut the land and made the lakes
From fire plains the forests grew
And melting peaks bled riverveins
And all the while in hearts of men
The rains that roar bred only hate
For wind brought corpses when it howled
And hid in halls we could not breach.

Sing a song of black blades
From burning throats on mountains high
Sing a song of sorrow
For the ones that will not last the night.
For every mortal heart desires
To fall in valor in the sight
Of old cruel gods that still believe
That man deserves to wander on
Through ages long of toil and war
Where king is night and never dawn
Should ring bright for tired eyes.
They melt the spears with blinding light
And while we watch our hearts expire
What else is there to do but fight?

A man of the sword
I have never been
I could only watch
As the sky caved in
And the horses charged
Towards the sun and then
Engulfed in flame
They ran no more.

When the wings come out
Like the stars at night
And the fire from the East hits the mountainside
Will you walk with me
Through the burning pines?
In a forest black'r than ever I knew
When a lifetime past seems the morning dew
Will you sing with me
Of the graves behind?
Will you dance with me
As we wait to die?
