Description             : Time once more to embark on a journey into an
			  imperiled world of medieval dark fantasy - this time
			  to score an all-new soundtrack for Hexen: Deathkings
			  of the Dark Citadel!

                          This expansion set for Hexen added three new hub
			  episodes and a cluster of deathmatch-only levels. It
			  either shipped with a rearrangement of Hexen's stock
			  music... or played no music at all if you were using
			  the 1.0 version of the HEXDD.WAD iwad. Sorely lacking
			  on at least two fronts!

                          Hexen's tracks are quite a far cry from the more rock-
			  oriented and uptempo tunes of Heretic, with the
			  earlier game's frantic guitars, smooth synths, and
			  catchy refrains being notably absent here, creating a
			  sense of all-encompassing gothic darkness and dread.
						  
			  With that suitably dark picture in mind, Doomworld's
			  composers have once again pooled their efforts to
			  create a completely new soundtrack - fit for a
			  Deathking!
