The Closing Chronicles (Subtitled: The Breathing Shadow II) is the second studio album by the Swedish progressive/AOR metal/rock band Nightingale, released by Black Mark Productions in 1996. The album continues the story begun on The Breathing Shadow. Though it finds Swano moving into the 70's/AOR-orientated sound that would be the band's trademark, the music is not as bombastic as their later albums due to the songs' stark arrangements giving the album an introspective, melancholy feeling.
