Abstract: << The first book on this unique and fascinating genre of music (excluding the Mortiis book, also available in the store), this is an exploration of this unique and fascinating music form and culture.
Originally birthed, almost by accident, from the black metal genre in the 1990s, dungeon synth has not not only returned, but exploded, in recent years, with a legion of new musicians picking up the torch. Featuring detailed interviews with many of the key figures, the book explores what separates dungeon synth from other forms of dark ambient, as well as its past, present and possible future.
Originally self-published in very low numbers in 2021, this edition has been edited and upgraded, with many more images and much improved overall production.
120 pages, with many illustrations and interviews with:
MORTIIS, DEPRESSIVE SILENCE, OLD SORCERY, OLD TOWER, MURGRIND, ÖRNATORPET, GALDUR, ERANG, VINDKALDR, EQUITANT, JOAN LLOPIS, HOLLOW MYTHS and more. >>
