Duel

by Paul Roland

Duel cover art

Cult English songwriter Paul Roland delves deeply into his obsession with Victorian macabre and Gothic literature on this elaborate conceptual work. 'Duel' utilizes orchestral instrumentation, classical motifs, and heavy folk-rock rhythms to weave tales of 19th-century murder, ghost stories, and the occult. The highly theatrical record stands as a uniquely eccentric piece of eccentric British dark-folk.
