Like I said in the Cultist Simulator writeup, Im very open to spooky ambience and creepy horror VGM. Shadow Man fills this niche in this topic for me nicely, though its not quite as interesting as Id like it to be. Most of the songs veer toward the forgettable. If Shonen_Bat really wanted to get big points, they couldve nominated Playrooms, which features lovely sounds like squeaky toys, babies playing, and chainsaws through flesh. Its a 9/10.

As Playrooms wasnt nominated, I must content myself with...

Favorite song: Title Theme. I love the really powerful drumbeat that opens this track. Drumbeats are the way to my heart. Title Theme gives off the aura of tribal ceremonies, of opening up a world of grand adventure. The melody is pretty simple, which is fine: its about setting the mood. Runner-up to For We Are Many, which includes screaming, a big industrial beat, backwards talking (or maybe thats talking in another language). Good stuff.
