Nocturnal Overlord<\/strong><\/a>, known for acts such as Necrochamber, Crimson Moon and his synth\/ambient project NIBIRU, has a brand new solo project titled “Earth Chronicles – Vol. 1<\/em><\/strong>” under his own moniker, Nocturnal Overlord<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An idea for a new solo project had been brewing for a while; urges to write and an inspriation to do something more, “Earth Chronicles” <\/em><\/strong>was born. Taking cues from world music, soundscapes and ambient styles, NO<\/strong> has made his most ambitious piece to date. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At its heart, “Earth Chronicles – Vol. 1”<\/em><\/strong> is a journey through space and time. Those familiar with the previous works of the Overlord, know that his appreciation of music goes far beyond metal; “Earth Chronicles<\/em><\/strong>” is a progression and a compliment to those endevours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For 18 minutes you will be taken on a path of discovery. Synths, percussion and a wide array of instrumentations of subtle yet vast depth will lift you out of your chair as if a beam of light appeared out of nowhere and took you to a strange yet familiar place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your journey will end in a place not from whence you came. The album begins with a familiar and calming ambience, not unlike NO<\/strong>‘s other ambient projects before you find yourself surrounded by tribal chants and rhythmic drums. Then a slight tonal shift begins at about the halfway point and before you realize it, you are on another planet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nocturnal Overlord<\/strong> has gone above and beyond with this project to give you a full transcendental out-of-body experience, there will be a video companion that will launch alongside the audio on his YouTube channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
