Under a Reptilian Moon

by Pauldron

supported by

Iván Delgado Mysterious, eerie, haunting. I love the cold, dreadful atmosphere o' this amazing album.
Perfect for reading Conan Of Cimmeria tales, Malazan Book Of The Fallen books, or many other great stories..! Favorite track: Engulfed in Darkness by Lizard Sorcery.

sjöhäxan I absolutely cannot get enough of this album, and it easily has jumped up as one of my top releases of this year. It's consistently cohesive and it explores such a lavish world, made possible only by such vivid and rich musical storytelling. This will continue to be played on repeat for a long time to come. Favorite track: Enter the Temple.

MarsDragoner More focused than the last album, it possesses a very charming occult and mysterious retro video game flair. The thematic choice really helps imagining strange occurrences transpiring in cursed lizard temples. The music itself is varied enough with quite a few twists and turns. Favorite track: Guarded Hallways.

gdanianvault A very interesting work. Listening to the album for a couple of days now and the mood is as if I've dived into another great RPG that I missed as a child! Very nice immersive sound design as well. Favorite track: Disappearances in the Night.

mr_red Haunting, dreamy, beautiful and wholely original in its antiquity. A memorable dungeon soundscape rendered with equal measure of lucidity and restraint. Highly recommended for fans of Dungeon Synth and VGM. Favorite track: The Mournful Spirit’s last Spell of Regeneration.

I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature. emanuele127

If nostalgia for an age where creatures of myth walked together with the children of men had a soundtrack, this album would be it. Also, a touching reminder that we can forego wealth and power for wilderness and freedom, if we so choose. emanuele127
