"It’s our first release, “The Erebus and The Terror”, the name comes from two ships which were part of an ill fated Artic expedition led by John Franklin in 1846. They were looking for the Northwest passage to the far east and all they found was death. It’s a very harrowing story of cannibalism, bad luck and nature’s continuity as the greatest force on the planet. The fate of these ships and sailors wasn’t known until the 1980’s and it’s one of the most bleak and terrifying stories in British history, thus making it great material for a song. The songs all have very different themes and ideas lyrically whilst musically transcending through different sub genres of metal. The record is very diverse with elements of thrash, death metal and hardcore but all in all I would just describe our sound as metal"
