Dark fantasy infused symphonic death metal is the offering from CHRONICLER OF ARDUL. In the new single “Woodlands”, composer and project mastermind David Williams extends an invitation to venture into a magical, orchestral led soundscape. It’s serene and ethereal, yet something sinister lies beneath. Stream “Woodlands” HERE.
“Delving deeper into the world of Ardul, ‘Woodlands’ captures the experience of wandering into the forest. Dark and mysterious, beautiful, and yet not comforting. There are dangers lurking in the shadows. Nature is unforgiving.”
David Williams continues, “My next album will expand on the world already established by the symphonic death metal releases of Myrewood and Sword of Virné, as well as the short stories detailing further the events of the Myrewood’s corruption. It will draw inspiration from countless video games and movies that had amazing music bring their worlds to life, such as Final Fantasy, Legend of Zelda, Lord of the Rings, and Octopath Traveler.”
About CHRONICLER OF ARDUL:
CHRONICLER OF ARDUL was started as a passion project by David Williams when he wanted to combine his love of metal music and dark fantasy to tell a story that spanned over songs and albums. After graduating from Berklee College of Music, he puts his skills to the test to create the music for a story he had been working on for 9 years. The debut EP called Myrewood released late 2023, with its written short story partner, Myrewood Part 1, published in May 2024. The following EP, Sword Of Virné arrived in the summer of 2024. Musically, CHRONICLER OF ARDUL draws from the likes of SHADOW OF INTENT and MENTAL CRUELTY in the metal world, while also taking inspiration from Japanese composer Nobuo Uematsu.
