商品説明

They have taken you deep into the crypts of a forbidden castle and to the edge of the sea among the ruins of a cursed village . . . Now the masters of gothic/horror soundscape invite you to take a musical journey into the macabre world of Haverghast Asylum. Your horse and carriage awaits you . . . Gates of Delirium marks the band's fourth album in as many years. During that time, Midnight Syndicate has pushed the boundaries of the gothic and classical crossover music genres. Their unique blending of dark, classical orchestration and sound effects has allowed Midnight Syndicate to establish a devoted following of gothic, horror film/music, and Halloween aficionados worldwide. Since it's inception, Midnight Syndicate's goal has been to create music that stimulates listeners' imaginations, transporting them to worlds and movies of their own creation. Set in a nightmarish, turn-of-the-century asylum, and featuring some of the band's most advanced production to date, Gates of Delirium promises to do just that. REVIEW - LEGENDS MAGAZINE - by : Mike Ventarola A lone scream pierces the night...

Dark shadows envelope unwilling guests of a wretched stronghold that harbors an unspeakable terror.... Welcome to Haverghast Asylum;' so echoes the dire back cover warning as we foray through the latest offering of sonic enticement of diabolical and abject terror. Midnight Syndicate continues to offer soundscapes best described as cinema of the mind. Haverghast Asylum is the imaginary setting for this latest outing, which comprises macabre music intertwined with the unrestful haunting of the criminally insane from another era. We are mute witnesses to an auditory excursion through the foulest depths of a man-made purgatory. Far worse than the unsettled dead patients, who endured unspeakable horrors and torture, are the eternally damned souls of their tormentors who have accompanied our phantom residents into this hellish abyss. The disc opens very dramatically, not unlike some of today's tension building music often included in contemporary horror films. We are taken back in time as gentle chimes and urgently tense violins accompany a horse drawn carriage. An anonymous passenger is heard departing from the carriage and entering Haverghast Asylum. He is unnerved as he passes the crammed, vile cells overflowing with filthy inhabitants. Flailing arms protrude from their imprisonment, begging for liberation from this life, each voice screaming louder over the din than the next. The doors slam tightly behind him, bolting him within, leaving him with no means of escape. Futile attempts to exit causes our visitor to comprehend that he has been thrust into the depths of depravity. This eventual realization has our protagonist frantic and running through the hallways and tunnels seeking a means of escape, however, he is unaware that his soul is doomed to wander and witness the wretched and unspeakable acts perpetrated throughout this institution of horror. Soon, his awareness will also alert him to the fact that a final egress from this life or the hell to follow is also unattainable. He barely catches his breath in a dark and isolated tunnel when he becomes cognizant of even more horrid sounds. This cacophony is even more pained than the wails and anguished screams from the cubicles that he just passed. Despite his fear, curiosity begs him forward, drawing him towards an archaic laboratory, which discloses acts of experimentation, mutilation and bodily violation on a grandiose scale. He questions his sanity as he tries to differentiate if these are echoed phantom images of the past or a present day abomination. Gates of Delirium, like the previous release Realm of Shadows*, utilizes a bit of a story model to guide the imagination. The genius behind this mental cinema is the proclivity to employ sound as the narrative. Unlike those who score soundtracks for films, Midnight Syndicate does not have film footage to guide the listener. Instead, this work takes sound to steer the listener towards images lurking within the confines of your mind. Surpassi
