Dark orchestral horror instrumental classics from gothic soundscape masters, Edward Douglas and Gavin Goszka.

Before the Haverghasts, before the haunted asylum and the Crypts of the Foresaken, there was Arcacia, a ruined village by the sea with a dark past and a mysterious link to an ancient tower hidden away among the cliffs of the Northern Jarls. “Out of the Darkness (Retrospective: 1994-1999)” features re-recorded and re-mastered horror music classics from Midnight Syndicate's “Midnight Syndicate,” “Born of the Night,” and “Realm of Shadows” as well as four previously unreleased tracks.

Containing close to 70 minutes of music, the collection features both the band's and the fans' favorite songs from the first three CDs re-recorded, re-mastered, and sounding better than ever. “Given the fact that both our writing and equipment have changed quite a bit since those discs were originally recorded, we looked at this as an opportunity to breathe new life into the material,” says Gavin Goszka. “We attempted to maintain as much of the sound and character of the original versions while still making minor changes to the arrangements and perfomances to bring them closer to what we originally envisioned.”

The disc also features previously unreleased material including selections from two of Edward Douglas' early horror films (“The Dead Matter” and “Journey Into Dementia”).

An updated take on the early signature tracks that helped launch Midnight Syndicate, “Out of the Darkness” invites listeners to return to the haunted village of Arcacia where it all began.
