Danphibian I have been listening to Noctilucant for about a year now and the one thing I think Joe absolutely sucks at is making bad dark ambient. This one is no exception. Insanely cavernous atmospheres pour into your earholes filling your mind with dread. but don't worry, this won't make you want to kill yourself. It instead forces you to come to peace with whatever darkness is in your soul leaving you relaxed and refreshed. 10/10

about

‘Only Dimness by Day and Blindness by Night’ is a retrospective that gathers together all of Noctilucant’s compilation appearances from 2016 to late 2018. Almost all of these tracks were originally released in digital format (except tracks 5 & 7), and while most of these songs are still readily available through Bandcamp, some of them have mysteriously disappeared. This album serves as an archival for all these songs, as well as, for those that missed them when they were originally released. All of the songs audio has been touched-up by, Alessio Antoni.
