Roots of the Old Oak

The Devil and His Wicked Ways

£29.99

Released: 15th September 2023. Roots of the Old Oak are three 'old school' death/doomsters who follow the old ways and give voice to their Pagan/Heathen deities via the medium of heavy, atmospheric music. Whilst the album is not strictly a concept album, the structure and track listing follow a pre-planned narrative. Overall, the first track, 'I Defy Thee', sits as a statement of intent concerning Christian Monks' first landing on English shores and our native Pagan ancestors refusing to convert or capitulate to invaders from across the waters. Proud and defiant, they stand their ground, the forests and valleys their battleground, the ancient ones standing tall behind them.
