INTERVIEWS / FEATURES

Wickham's 2008 Halloween Review - "Midnight Syndicate definitely has branched out and extended their sound."

Grave Concerns - "Midnight Syndicate is mega-phenomenal within their craft---true geniuses of gothic music and story-telling, and their soundtrack to “The Rage”, is another masterpiece. . . Midnight Syndicate just gets it; they know how to make exceptionally haunting, diverse, intelligent and simply creepy and beguilingly provocative music for one's mind to absorb and get lost in. "

BlogCritics Magazine (UK) - "creepy music that rises above the normal soundtrack fare . . . they don't rely on you knowing the movie to make the music worthwhile."

Outburn Magazine (Issue # 44) - "Lots of brooding piano, stabbing horns, and sweeping strings give the proceedings a very full and larger than life feel, which is perfect for an emotional, edge of your seat movie project such as this."

Unrestrained Magazine (Canada) (Issue # 37) - ". . . I've been drawn into the world of The Rage. The duo are master craftsmen when it comes to suspense and eerie themes."

Side-Line Magazine (Belgium) (5/1/08) - "Midnight Syndicate remains a unique experience in gothic music . . . they simply go beyond the borders and standards of classical gothic music . . . creating a soul to gothic music! "

Muziek-en-Film (Netherlands - in Dutch) (5/1/08) - "A fantastic soundtrack . . ."

Dread Central (4/29/08) - "Only with great scores can you let your imagination wonder when only listening to the music . . . 'The Rage' soundtrack is one of those rare pieces of music where the sound defines the picture."

Judas Kiss (UK) (4/29/08) - "(They) expand the dynamic nature of their previous works to produce a huge, bombastic and intensely stimulating soundtrack, which is hauntingly majestic and deeply engrossing . . . immensely easy to get drawn deeply into the haunting keys, heavenly choral renditions, sporadic industrial noise, intensely pitch-black atmosphere and bittersweet melodies. . .Just the music alone is dynamic and menacing enough to make you jump and get your pulse racing, which is exactly what you want and expect from a soundtrack of this nature."

Fear and Trembling (4/24/08) - "Midnight Syndicate does what they do best—create the scariest atmosphere possible through music."

DnD Gate (Germany) (4/13/08) - "On one side, there is the superb style of MS, which one has heard before in other productions, on the other side one can find a new style, which hits the horror film genre perfectly – like the so called fist in the eye . . . smoldering together to an extreme terrifying and dark sound . . ."

Movement Magazine (4/8/08) - "Midnight Syndicate has conjured up a terrifying score that will have you hanging onto the edge of your seat, even in it's most subtle moments . . . All the releases that they have done before have been leading up to an album like this."

Deadbolt Magazine (4/3/08) - "While the driving force of this album lies in its heart-pounding sequences, it truly reaches a zenith in the ominous portions that deliver more subtle nuances of fear."

Fangoria Musick Blog (3/19/08) -"Midnight Syndicate has been haunting their listeners for 11 years now, and their experience in creating tense atmospheres can really be heard in this CD."

Doc Gangrene (3/18/08) - ". . . every bit as atmospheric, dark and suspensful as previous Midnight Syndicate releases. . . really first rate"

Bastards of Horror (3/5/08) - "The music is excellent, has a great horrifying feel to it, flows beautifully like the "Hellraiser" movie soundtrack, and with every note you can visualize every scene from the film like a soundtrack should be. . . Midnight Syndicate’s soundtrack to “The Rage” does just that to near perfection."
