Figured I'd share this work in progress on here. It's an earlier draft of this song but should give you an idea of the direction we're headed. The completed song has more vocals and another 2 minutes of material.


More to come, hope to be playing shows by winter if my drummer doesn't fall into one of the holes he's digging in Ireland. Bloody archaeologists. We're on hiatus for the summer of 2011 but we'll be back to playing/writing in September. Updates will appear on our facebook page.

Where's the kittens.

drummer and archaeologist? man i wanna be.

cats are on hiatus.

i like where this is going...

Back to working on this in late August.

i wouldn't wait for your drummer to come back, IMHO

Good stuff Alex, very cool moods there.

Practice has resumed. Stuff is sounding quite pleasing to my ears. I hope everyone hates it.

Awful band.

Thanks aril

LEAFLESS PENIS

HERPUGRIM

looking for shows, willing to play anywhere in new england

More info please. Logo, line up, style, etc.

New logo is under construction, will be posted when finished.

Lineup:
Alx - vocals, bass
Vansoth - drums

As for style, closest to black metal... whatever that means anymore, right aril?

it's hard to tell what's going on but that sounds promising for just bass + drums.

overhyped

thanks, the promo is highlights pasted together from a room mic recording, just to give a general idea.

booked for 3/8/11, keep em coming

OR confirmed... Lol not.

I want an a capella performance from you plz

Funny how people automatically remark, "why don't you add a guitar" when they find out it's just drums + bass, without first listening to it.

NO U

Exactly.

aril, new logo by MFR will be unveiled in a few days. Looks killer.

To everyone else who still uses facebook instead of rttp for social networking: http://www.facebook.com/BarrenOak

ITT: Time travel

Stuck in 2011 for all eternity.

thats probably what they said to necromantia back in the day, and now look

You're not the first person to compare us to that band. I don't think we sound much alike, but maybe that's just me. Anyways, here's the new logo for aril, designed by Mark Richards.

The tree says BARREN OAK. I see what ya did there.

Fuck, that's a tree?!

Yeah.

tr00 version:



Which would you rather see on a shirt?

First version. Looks good.

That is a cool logo

No, it says BARREL ROLL. You failed to see what I did there.

It says aril roll? Oh shit.

Getting a run of shirts made with the first logo's color scheme to have at shows. As if anyone will like us that much.

Good ole self loathing; the only way.
