Lyrics were by Darryl Grant Potter; music was by Darryl Grant Potter and Michael Bohl.
RingLord
RingLord was originally conceived by Soundestiny as a rock musical inspired by The Lord of the Rings. The songs themselves contain no references to Tolkien character-names or place-names. As the project consisted of 25 songs in total, the band decided to divide the tracks into two separate album releases. Shadow Rising (RingLord Part I) was released in 2004. However, a period of six years elapsed before Soundestiny released the follow-up Winds of Change (RingLord Part II) in 2010, recorded at Rigidigital Studios.
