The Pillars of Ruination

by Desolation Plains

supported by

josephcole Perfect music for murder and mayhem in Galgenbek!!

barleybase An outstandingly dark and enchanting epic from Desolation Plains. There is an immensely deep soundscape to discover here. It is easy to get lost in this tale that is drenched in lore. I highly recommend checking this out! Favorite track: Endless Gem Cavern // Relentless Pit Worms.

hrexandro Solid dungeon synth. Old-school and creepy. Favorite track: Order of the Wyvern.

Stefan Schneider Quite the journey through beautifully icy synths and super catchy melodies, super immersive and evocative. You can imagine yourself moving through this world and admiring its desolate landscapes. Favorite track: Shrine Maidens of Blight Hollows.

doaktionary The only bad part of this album is that it isn't available on tape yet. Another home run from Desolation Plains! 🔥🔥 Favorite track: A Crows Offering of Rusty Nails.

walrusabove We making it out of The Pillars with this one ❗❗ Favorite track: Endless Gem Cavern // Relentless Pit Worms.

about

A foreboding sky hangs over the ancient citadel of the Wyvern Order, perched majestically on the formidable Skah-drol mountain. Amidst the darkness, bolts of crimson lightning crackle, illuminating the craggy path upward.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, amidst the blight hollows, you find yourself alone. In your grasp lies an ominous black shard of glass, its edges biting into your palm, drawing blood. Yet, your thirst for vengeance remains unquenched.

However, you know that defeating the Knight-Lord cannot be achieved alone. You need allies. With a combination of steel and magic, you may uncover the path to righteous retribution.

Welcome to The Pillars of Ruination.

about

Desolation Plains Minneapolis, Minnesota

Desolation Plains is a one-person Dungeon Synth act hailing from the frozen prairie-land of Minnesota. Inspired by vast forests of the north, the weeping red rivers of the iron range, and the open golden prairies of west central, Desolation Plains takes you on a journey through a world of frost-bitten arpeggios, forlorn filters and mystical oscillation. ... more

Lunar Nocturnes and Esoteric Incantations

I have a deep admiration for Jenn's ability to lick out fun, interesting and fast keys. There is a technical mastery to her work while still capturing a playful and cosmic adventure. Truly remarkable. Desolation Plains

Warp Lord

Find me atop The Holy Mountain when I listen to this album. The guitars shroud a person as would a hot steam bath. This album is nothing short of true enlightenment. Desolation Plains

Cat of the Magnetic Desert
by sorcxrxr

An inspiring lo-fi beats project that spins a mishmash of old-school video-game and vintage cinematic vibes. Definitely a cassette you'd pluck out of a skeleton's hand during the apocalypse. Desolation Plains

This album is SO well done! I love when DS albums have longer songs that don't get repetitive but also keep the same vibe the whole way through, the artwork for the album is amazing too! crjanisca
