For those familiar with the early Suikoden games, memories of Neclord's Castle and ultimate epic destruction will no doubt flood back on hearing "Coffin". The first track is choral organ music with passages that channel Bach, Castlevania, and an entire smorgasbord of otherwise unconnected influences.

Much darker than "Autumn" before it, this is the warning that plays when your band of heroes spends too long outside of safety and darkness comes in. The entire setting has moved well away, and these are places that are unfamilar and feel very, very wrong.

Coffin is a pleasing, un-nerving release that is very well suited for all Vampiric adventures and storylines, and unlike earlier releases, this flows with intent and a genuinely dark harmony.
