Shadowmoon Sunset (Full Version) - Music of WoW: Warlords of Draenor
7 596
This is a full version of the "Shadowmoon Sunset" theme from Warlords of Draenor by Craig Stuart Garfinkle.
In the game files, there are only 2 appearances of this song, namely "Shadowmoon Sunset Intro" and "Shadowmoon Sunset Reprise". I used to think that those 2 tracks were all there was to this song, but after doing some digging, apparently there's much more going on with this song than I had anticipated. Go to 2:45 to see what I mean.
Ultimately, I can kinda understand why a lot of the stuff here didn't make it into the game. The rock and roll-ish vibe isn't exactly the most thematically befitting for World of Warcraft (well, I guess there is Bronze Jam, though that time was different!). But still, I think it sounds pretty awesome even if it doesn't really suite the game well. It's just neat that we even have a full version of this theme at all.
Anyway, if you're wondering about how I dug this up, it was this video I found ( that contains the song in its entirety. Though, the only catch is that it's much quieter compared to the in-game tracks. That's why I made this version that adjusts the volume to better match what those tracks sound like.
