The Basilisk, by Roman Master

The Basilisk

by Roman Master

supported by

TigerTorakio I don't believe anyone returns alive from this quest. The album has a grimly militaristic tone, suggesting fear and resignation, not valor. The menace of the basilisk directs the esoteric narrative from the first to the very last, like an unspeakable fate that simply can't be escaped. Favorite track: Quest to Kill a Basilisk.

Kaptain Carbon Oh, its Roman Master which means we have hit the weird section of our digest. Roman Master has been the source of great polarity as the projects brazenness and fanatical devoted by its robbed acolytes has caused a stir especially given the alien sounds of its releases. The Basilisk ratchets down the weirdness from the projects debut and presents a pretty well put together lo-fi dungeon synth adventure which sees monsters, tragedy, and dark adventure. Favorite track: Path through a Dark Forest.

celestialhost Narrative driven music. The sense of danger evokes stories and myths you heard as a kid.
