That's a fucking ripper of a song, holy shit. Neurosis-y with more than a hint of Amebix to my ear, but you have managed to put your own spin on it big time. I love the vocals, how you can hear the Irish accent coming through. It adds an extra bit of authenticity,  but the music has originality too. There's a joyousness or sense of celebration to it at the end. I don't know if that was intentional or if it's just that I'm completely fucking warped in the brain, but the sing-along buzz just feels like positive vibes to me. Most impressive. I'll have to check out your earlier releases as despite knowing the name I can't remember the music having caught me before.

Such a killer sound. Really class to see this seeing the light of day, came together really well.

Roll on Friday and more of it

The lads are class, can't wait for the full album.  Though I suspect I have heard an amount of this live already lol

I think it was all played at Siege alright, and that was phenomenal

Cheers fellas

Some Irish dates added

No warping of the brain Mclove, nail on the head.

The song is about the Mary Russell tragedy. I live a few minutes from the graves of the seven murdered crew. Their captain believed that they were planning a mutiny based on them speaking Irish.

The Mary Russell

Ollie here buck. Savage as always. I expected nothing less.


Great work. I'll pick it up on payday next. Well done.

Ochoill sent me the link to the track up the other day and it was class.

Gave this a quick spin the other night and it's class. Got it's own unique thing going on which is hard to pin down. Some of the guitar licks remind me of Smashing Pumpkins oddly enough even though the genres are far apart. Need to give it a few more spins but definitely an excellent Irish release  :abbath:

The bit where the riff is like a hammer on solo is my favourite but I've still only heard the one tune
