Soissons was forged in the unholy union of Age of Empires 2 map editor and a burned Screaming For Vengeance CD. Tonight, he's your game master, unleashing an epic D&D campaign, poetic and Iron Maiden-fueled.»

This is how the twisted mind behind this "medieval anti-capitalist one-man bard" (his words, not ours) hooks his gigs. And trust us, if that sounds too good to be true, you’re definitely not ready for Souviens-Toi, his debut LP dropping mid-September on CROUX.

We could also mention the dogs, chainmail, steamy knight-on-knight action, more chainmail, dark fortresses, swords, even more chainmail… all erupting in a medieval synth-noise epic—the perfect blend of Depeche Mode with a troubadoom twist and the diary of a minstrel gone full night-goblin mode.

And if the record doesn’t deliver? Well, you’re welcome to stone us with your d20s, you glorious nerds.
