Enter the dark realm of Roots of the Old Oak, old school UK Pagan Death\/Doom Metal!<\/p>\n

Roots of the Old Oak are three \u0093Old School\u0094 Death\/Doomsters who follow the old ways and give voice to their Pagan\/Heathen deities via the medium of heavy, atmospheric music.<\/p>\n

Whilst \u0093The Devil and His Wicked Ways\u0094 is not strictly a concept album, the structure and track listing follow a pre-planned narrative. Overall, the first track, \u0093I Defy Thee\u0094, sits as a statement of intent concerning Christian Monks\u0092 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.<\/p>\n

Through the album, we honour their bravery and sacrifice and announce that the Old Gods aren\u0092t dead, nor have they returned. On the contrary, we\u0092re saying they never left
