Studio Update!
Wednesday, 01 February 2012 21:44
We are now in the final stages of recording the album. All drums, electric guitars, bass and keys have been recorded and we are in the middle of recording the acoustic guitars.


We have recorded 5 brand new Old Corpse Road songs which follow as a natural progression from "The Bones of this Land..." combined with the atmosphere of our demo. We have also recorded a selection of ambient and instrumental interludes which complement the theme of the album.


One song to be featured on the album is 'The Crier of Claiffe' which some of you may have seen us play live recently. You can read about the tale here:


The track also features some traditional Lakeland poetry by Thomas Harrison.

Back on track... The Drummer Situation
Thursday, 27 October 2011 17:47
"After a long battle with a herniated disc in my spine, I have returned to live duties with the Old Corpse Road. It's been a long hard 6 months of physio, spinal injections and scans and it is far from over but I’m in a position where I can handle drum duties well enough to gig. In our downtime we have wasted no time in writing and pre-demoing tracks for our forthcoming album. On Wednesday night I spent a couple of hours getting the drums down for The Crier of Claiffe and thankfully it went painlessly onto the next song.." The Dreamer – Drums, Old Corpse Road

Gig cancellation this Friday
Wednesday, 16 March 2011 18:31
We are extremely sad to announce that Old Corpse Road have had to pull out of this Friday's gig at Selby. This is due to a very serious family emergency and could not have been avoided.

Our thoughts go out to The Revenant and his family in this tough time.
