Earlier this year Midnight Syndicate released a new album, Monsters of Legend, that we highly recommend adding to your music collection for Halloween! If you are not already familiar with Midnight Syndicate, they are what Trans-Siberean Orchestra and Mannheim Steamroller is to Christmas.
The band consists of composers Edward Douglas and Gavin Goszka and they are known for creating symphonic soundtracks to imaginary films that facilitate a transcendental and adventurous escape into the secret dimensions of the mind's eye. To many of their fans, they are Gothic music pioneers brewing a signature blend of orchestral horror music and movie-style sound effects. To others, they remain the first "haunted house band" that forever changed the Halloween music genre and became a staple of the October holiday season. Their critically-acclaimed works are reminiscent of sweeping, complex masterpieces by artists such as James Horner and Danny Elfman, and have been featured as a part of groundbreaking films, television shows, video games and at haunted attractions, amusement parks and live performances worldwide.
