In a move which seeks to showcase their musical specialties, record labels such as Prophecy Productions will occasionally sell themselves to likely consumers by putting out a carefully selected compilation CD with the best of their bands’ repertoire. However, it’s rarely seen that these bands will be linked together by something other than genre or even icon tributes; which is where ‘Whom The Moon A Nightsong Sings‘ draws its own niche, to set itself apart from other label packages. Bringing musicians together under the aesthetic theme that the two-disc release’s title describes; it may be that this is one relatively small step for Prophecy and another step forward for creative integrity in the ocean of the current music industry.

  1. Quality album. I'd recommend it to anyone.

    And well worth purchasing a physical copy too if you like it, as the whole thing is a work of art.

  2. Very true indeed. I got as an anniversary present from my GF and oh lord, I was blown away. Even a tad better than "Der Wanderer Über dem Nebelmeer" wich is quite an achievement.
