Leech and Wort

by Faery Ring

supported by

Honey Suckle The plague is consuming the Faery Kingdom and it is to our glee and appreciation that we get this masterfully crafted report concerning the goings on within! Favorite track: Cloudspyre.

Gabriel Tamas A classic in its own right, this album finally gets a well deserved physical release. For years I though I was the only one who remembered this project and the minimalist approach it brought in the early days of the the DS revival. Regardless, Gondolin prove themselves as the ultimate DS curators and bring this mastepriece to light yet again!

about

Highly regarded by the small dungeon synth scene back in early 2017, 'Leech and Wort' is a deep, powerful and beautiful manifestation of the dark dungeon music traditions, with an archaic sound and also occasional forays into sombre medievalist moods. Hereby available physically for the first time.

Faery Ring is an English project started back in 2015, and by no means a stranger in Gondolin as the back catalogue has been unhurriedly presented in a physical form over the last few years since GON023. The project is still to be considered as active.

Like the previous Faery Ring releases, this tape also includes an artworked booklet fitting inside the case with fiction written by the artist to accompany the music. This time reporting on the faery kingdom's dealing with a plague.

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly

My favorite out of the three I believe.The sound is more aggressive and fits the cover art of what looks like a perilous journey for the protagonist. Fits well at being the second in the trilogy of albums. Every song is good and the cassette tape and package is of good quality. A Great buy that deserves a vinyl edition. Joshua Laleina
