Good evening, my Shadows. The clock nears the final toll of this year, and I must say, dwelling in the darkness with you all has been a twisted delight. Your unwavering support has kept the abyss alive, and I strive to continue crafting the sounds that leave your eardrums bleeding with wicked joy.



To confess, I’ve wrestled with the idea of ending this journey. Yet, this shadowed sanctuary I’ve built—the hobby that has grown beyond my wildest imaginings—keeps pulling me back. Knowing that you embrace and revel in what I create fuels my resolve to carry on. You have no idea how deeply your presence bolsters my mind and spirit in the face of the void. This week, I shall retreat into the shadows, taking a brief respite to rest and spend precious time with my loyal fur companions. The loss of my beloved Sandy this year serves as a somber reminder that those who remain need my devotion and care. I will wander with them on daily journeys, ensuring they feel the love and presence that binds us.

Fear not, dear Shadows—I shall still conjure the weekly The Shadow's Requiem - Radio Show, but my crafting of new sounds will be temporarily stilled, waiting patiently in the void until next week. I trust you will understand this brief indulgence of solitude, as I step back to reclaim a fragment of myself in the darkness.

Now, for the darkness to come: I am pleased to announce the release of my new album, Chains of Conformity, arriving January 10th. For those eager to secure their place in the darkness, here is the Spotify pre-save link: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/noc....

You have long requested my works on Spotify, and this coming year, I shall oblige. You can expect listings of singles and albums to descend upon the digital abyss. If there are particular hymns you wish to see united on an album, let your whispers reach me through email.

As always, I thank each of you, my Shadowed kin. You are the lifeblood of this channel, the reason this darkness thrives. Let us step into the new year together, with more chaos, more blood, and more haunting melodies to come. Also please enjoy the 4 new tracks for the new year coming. Use them as you wish! Remember this My Shadows, it is your time, it is your year! Let everyone hear you this coming year!

From the shadowed abyss of Nocturnal Sindicate, a chilling wind carries forth a New Year’s greeting...

As the veil between years grows thin and the clock tolls the final death knell of the old, I, your kindred of the shadows, emerge to offer this darkened salutation. May the coming year be cloaked in midnight’s embrace, your path illuminated only by the spectral glow of the moon and the cold light of distant stars. Embrace the mysteries of the witching hour, for it is within the folds of darkness that true power resides. This is your year to command, to shape, to claim as your own. Let your ambitions rise like phantoms in the mist, and let your resolve be as unyielding as the eternal grip of death.

Step boldly into the darkness and seize your destiny, for the night is eternal, and the world quivers beneath your awakening.

Happy New Year, Shadows...
