Nox Arcana do a fine line in creepy symphonic gothic electronic metal. As you could guess from the name, this CD was inspired by the mythos of one Howard Philips Lovecraft. The brief spoken word bits on this CD are quotes from the great man's work. For once, a band, or in this case a duo, have fully realised the creeping menace that is the Cthulhu mythos. Admirers of HPL's work will recognise the names of the tracks including Yog-Sothoth, Nyarlathotep, The Black Pharoah and Cthulhu. There are 21 tracks of symphonic eerieness on here. The right balance is struck between tunefullness and the sense of dread. One can truly say that the reading of Lovecraft and his successors now have a soundtrack. <a href="http://www.phdpublishers.com/TGD.html">Those of us</a> who continue to add to the mythos genre will have some audio inspiration should we need it. This is by far the best audio or visual pieceinspired by Lovecraft's work to emerge in a very long time.

| I wasn't really taken in by the music, because it reminds me of castlevania on the Super-NES, but I give them props for making such an amazing tribute to the Lovecraftian Legacy of creepiness. No doubt many will enjoy their offerings! |

| I listened to it several times on my iPod while reading on a train and it was rather good for that. I must confess that I was wishing there was more actual instruments in the mix instead of just programmed ones. |
