FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MIDNIGHT SYNDICATE RELEASES “DARKENED CORNERS,” AN EP OF RARE TRACKS
CLEVELAND, Ohio, September 26, 2025 – Gothic horror instrumental and Halloween music composers, Midnight Syndicate have released an EP of previously unreleased and rare material spanning a period of twenty years entitled “Darkened Corners.”
With album artwork by French artist Pascal Casolari, the EP features music the band has composed for amusement parks and theme parks, as well tracks from their live shows. It also includes a remix of a song from the score to their horror film “The Dead Matter” and unreleased music written for various film projects that have yet to be fully realized. “We’ve wanted to share this material and make it more readily available for a while now. It gives fans a glimpse into the some of the other projects we’ve undertaken when not working on studio albums.”
Midnight Syndicate recently completed the original score for Universal Horror Unleashed in Las Vegas, the first year-round horror experience from Universal Destinations & Experiences. The band is currently working their next full-length album, slated for release in 2026.
“This next album has been in development for a while now,” said Edward Douglas. “We’re really happy with the direction it’s heading and are looking forward to next year. In the meantime, we hope “Darkened Corners” gives everyone a few more tracks to consider for their Halloween listening this season.”
