For our second feature in this weeks’ Dungeon Synth Sunday, we travel to a distant realm of epic quests, high adventure and fantastic voyages into the unknown, with Sword Oath, and the project’s debut release, Ancient Tales From the Valley of Sorrow. The album takes us on a search of valour, heroism and riches, fuelled by the finest mead and buoyed by might, magic and mystery. Highly influenced by classic fantasy books, movies and soundtracks, if this does not feel like all the Sundays of your childhood, spellbound by Harryhausen miniatures, and mythical adventure then you are probably much younger than both me and the enigmatic artist behind Sword Oath, or about to embark on the saga of a lifetime.
