KIRKWOOD - Tales From a Melnibone Tavern LP
Tales from a Melnibone Tavern (oos234/DEI-004) sets the stage with atmospheric compositions that echo the decadent and tragic nature of Elric’s homeland, weaving an intricate tapestry of sorrow and grandeur.
Drawing inspiration from the fantastical and philosophical musings of Michael Moorcock, Jim Kirkwood embarked on a profound exploration of Melnibonéan mythos with this trilogy of albums originally released in the early 1990s, aptly titled "The Eternal Champion Trilogy".
One of the seminal releases of the genre that later became known as 'dungeon synth', Jim Kirkwood's "Tales From A Melnibone Tavern" has achieved legendary status in the underground over the years. Finally be available once again with an excellent new remaster courtesy of Josh Bonati. Released by Out of Season and Hosianna Mantra.
