Tales from Nan Elmoth

by Frostgard

supported by

Dave Aftandilian Stately and soothing epic melodies perfectly evoke a feeling of courtly manners at a time when Middle Earth was new and wonder shone in every silver leaf and pebble. Great for dreaming….

sjöhäxan Beautiful composition that tells a sorrowful story with strings, bells, and mellow woodwind. There is a gentleness and a softness to the album as a whole, and the final track strikes a bombastic final note. Musical story-telling at its finest. Favorite track: Of Maeglin and the Death of a Star.

MarsDragoner A beautiful and peaceful rendition of Aredhel's journeys across Beleriand with a stunning cover artwork to boot. Yearning, love and tragedy enshrouded by a good measure of mystery accompany Gondolin's princess. Favorite track: The Secret Pathway to Gondolin.

johnlordswood This old-school sound with these melodies brings back a lot of nostalgic memories for me, this album is so pleasant to listen to, Frostgard is a great dungeon synth project! I'm waiting to have this on tape so I can listen to it on my cassette player during my walks in the forest to feel like I'm in Middle-earth ~ Favorite track: At the Gates of Nan Elmoth.

about

The forest of Nan Elmoth hides a sad and brooding history. Aredhel Ar-Feiniel, the pale lady of the Noldor, lived there under the spell of Eöl, the dark elf. However, she always longed for the walls of the hidden city, the beautiful Gondolin. Unfortunately, the journey of Aredhel and her son Maeglin to Gondolin would lead to death. Maeglin's arrival in Gondolin was only the beginning of the end of the history of this once proud kingdom, now reduced to ashes by the hosts of Morgoth.

All music recorded and performed by Sisslith.
Inspired by J. R. R. Tolkien "The Silmarillion".

Voice on “Of Maeglin and the Death of a Star” by Lord of Time (Arcana Liturgia).

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
