And I think it is so cool that they have decided to pay tribute to their fans with their latest CD. We've been a fan/follower of Nox Arcana from the very beginning and have enjoyed each and every one of their releases. The echoing notes from the piano, the low chanting in the background, the wailing moans and screams, all come together to create another masterful piece of atmospheric splendor. It immediately brings the listener to a place where darkness envelopes you, but while some would be scared, for people like us, it seems to calm you, creating a peacefulness amongst the sounds coming from your speakers. Listening to a Nox Arcana CD is like slipping into an old coat or shirt, something so familiar, so comfortable, and relaxing at the same time. Kitley's KryptĪfter 10 years of creating some amazing tracks of atmospheric music, the kind that is welcomed in any dungeon or crypt, Nox Arcana has released their latest CD which is a tribute to their fans, entitled Legion of Shadows. Legion of Shadows A masterful piece of atmospheric splendor. There will be a variety of dark anthems with a theme that centers around the mysteries of the night and it's various haunted denizens, with an underlying story about lost love, melancholy memories of ghosts from the past, and forlorn souls who are empowered by embracing the darkness within." "My goal with Nox Arcana has always been to create music from the shadows for creatures of the night, and I wanted this album to really reflect all aspects of this mindset. I took all of this to heart, and used their input as the basis for the tracks on the new album. Many of them have definite ideas and suggestions for concepts and musical themes. I get countless letters from fans relaying their own stories of how the music of Nox Arcana has inspired their own artistic spirits. They are a very creative group of artistic-minded people who find beauty in darkness. "To celebrate Nox Arcana's 10 year anniversary, I wanted to create an album that was entirely dedicated to Nox Arcana fans-our very own 'Legion of Shadows'. Nox Arcana founder Joseph Vargo, who has been producing dark, haunting works with various bands and musical projects for over two decades, dedicates Legion of Shadows to his loyal listening audience. In addition to Nox Arcana's darkly romantic and haunting original pieces, the album also features Vargo's gothic version of Bach's classic "Toccata and Fugue". Nox Arcana invites you to enter the esoteric order of the Legion of Shadows to explore the mysteries of the night as you immerse yourself in a gothic soundscape of haunting melodies, eerie sound effects and pulse-pounding, symphonic orchestrations. Beyond the world of light, there exists a hidden realm where creatures of the night revel in the beauty of darkness.
