Some of the highest quality gothic-horror soundtrack
type music is included in this album, the 7th full-length release by this
Ohio based duo, who have built an impressive reputation with one album after
the other of fantastic works. The 13th Hour sports a maturity in
the duo's compositions that surpasses any work they have done so far. It
sounds a bit odd to say that, since their previous works (which we have
had the honor to review at Darklife) are all outstanding albums as
well. Orchestrations in The 13th Hour reach epic dimensions, re-creating
the purest gothic atmospheres ever committed to score. Haunting passages,
mysterious shadows in the night, the mansion is sinister and seducing at
the same time. It's grandiose and magnificent, it's imposing, it holds secrets
of generations, it's chilling and menacing. A fantastic nighttime opus,
one that will titillate your darkest fantasies, offering visions out of
a world that is long gone.
