Thri-Kreen of Athas

dynocyboponk Words cannot express how much I love this album. It's an interesting variation of dungeon synth and takes inspiration from a unique source, with both combined making it quite an intriguing listen. Favorite track: To'ksa.

Nick Shutter Though there are a few moments that sound particularly medieval here, Darken Wood's roots reach further back on this one—blending dungeon synth's fantasy elements with the prehistoric and ancient to create a mesmerizing, unique, and alien experience. Highly worthwhile.

ꇒꈼꋊ ❼ : {🅺🅸🅻*🅺🆄🅻🆃🆄🆁} 🕸⛧🕯🖤 🖤 🖤 🧿 {✠Ⱨ₳ł₮Ⱨ₳₦₳✠} There is a magically tribal feel with this one. A race of alien insect like beings make their way through the wastes. We were never meant to be a part of their world - unless one considers our demise as a possible form of nourishment for these creatures.☠ Favorite track: T'keech.

Deferent Golgi A thoroughly captivating musical expedition to alien yet beautiful wastelands where only a nomadic race of thickly carapaced insect warriors can possibly survive. Very much in the spirit of vintage computer game music, especially the Shadow of the Beast variety. Favorite track: To'ksa.

An Goblin an adventure into heart of fierce, sentient insectoids. keeps the story of Darken Wood moving into new and interesting territory.

wolfknight75 Great Track and awesome album. It really complements Dark Sun and is good for background vibe while RPGing. Thanks would love to see more like this. Favorite track: Jeral.

about

Music and Art by D. Long

Momentarily stepping out of the world of Krynn and into the burning wastelands of Athas, a realm in the Dark Sun setting of Advanced Dungeons and Dragons. This album is a musical study of the six subspecies of kreen that inhabit the land. Inspired by the sourcebook "Thri-Kreen of Athas" written by Tim Beach and Dori Hein and published by TSR in 1995.

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
