Music Monday: Midnight Syndicate

Midnight Syndicate has just released a new album: Bloodlines, which dropped on 20th August, 2021. I've been a fan since I overheard one of their earliest albums, Born of the Night, in a shop in Salem, MA many moons ago.

Bloodlines is a continuation of their habit of creating themed albums, and is reported to be a prequel to the story behind the 2005 album The 13th Hour. The majority of their works are instrumental, and the stories behind the albums are only hinted at through the song titles; the rest is left up to the listener's imagination.

If you're not yet familiar with the work of Midnight Syndicate, they have produced a 20+ year discography of dark, gothic, orchestral atmospheric compositions that sounds like the musical scores from forgotten horror films. Their albums are used often in haunted attractions, so if you attend those, chances are pretty good that you may have heard their music even if you weren't aware of it.
