Good job as usual.
To me, this is even more leaning toward a soundtrack/background music vibe than the previous one. Definitely less guitars, but where they are supposed to, they shine. There are some inspired classic prog/seventies licks in here. The drumbeats are funky as usual, too. This could have been the soundtrack for some b-movie by Argento or Bava.
You seem to always come up with exciting ideas for the synths even if your palette is somewhat limited (I hear a lot of moog and sweeping or square leads, for example), as was the case with Goblin, after all.
I think your works in this style are better than your more straight-up metal moments.

Thanks for the comments, Sir! Much appreciated. I think my next project (while still having a lot of sweeping moogy moments) will be my attempt at classic 1970's Prog, a la Yes and King Crimson. Less modern synths, more Mellotron and/or Hammond B3 type stuff. We'll see.

I would love to see what some of the YouTube animators would come up with to go along with my music, similar to some of the New Retrowave guys have done. And I agree, I think my "metal" days are behind me.

YOU DONT SAY ! metal days behind you ???!

i have one word for you : "lemmy".................other words i may have include "cirhossis", "overdose", "failed organs", "stroke" etc etc etc

------------------------------------on a more serious note----------


Sometimes i wish you had a vocalist in places....for short bits in the middle....

production and composition wise its pretty much bang on as always.....lotta 70's prg and tangerine dream vibes abound.....

That does indeed sound like a complete professional soundtrack album for some late 70s/early 80s horror movie. Soundtrack album in search of a movie . Archive.org has some public domain 70s sf flicks, maybe it could be possible to find something suitable.

If the next one is going to have Hammond and Mellotron, it could be the soundtrack for a Romero movie that never was. Hammond, Moog and Mellotron are the instruments of the devil.

Hah! Love that combination of old keyboards, but I'm not sure the music would fit a Romero flick.

Actually, here's a link to the new album - I just posted it a few minutes ago.

I'm working on the simple videos for YouTube, which I hope to post soon.
