Products description

Drawing inspiration from the fantastical and philosophical musings of Michael Moorcock, Jim Kirkwood embarked on a profound exploration of Melnibonéan mythos with this trilogy of albums originally released in the early 1990s, aptly titled "The Eternal Champion Trilogy".

Tales from a Melnibone Tavern (oos234/DEI-004) sets the stage with atmospheric compositions that echo the decadent and tragic nature of Elric’s homeland, weaving an intricate tapestry of sorrow and grandeur.

Souls that Dance on the Edge of a Sword (oos235/DEI-005) delves deeper into Moorcock’s existential themes, its haunting melodies evoking the chaos and carnage wrought by Stormbringer, the cursed Black Sword.

Finally, Kirkwood’s Master of Dragons (oos236/DEI-006), widely regarded as his magnum opus, brings the trilogy to a climactic resolution with sweeping, cinematic compositions that capture both the metaphysical gravity and epic scope of Moorcock’s multiverse.

Through this trilogy, Kirkwood masterfully balances the tension between chaos and order, underscoring his belief in the eternal nature of the soul—a poignant counterpoint to the nihilistic undertones of Moorcock’s work.
