We also have a video out for this too!

Featuring our bassist Scot and the chilly winter beaches of the east of Scotland, because he had to suffer for our art.

Concept wise, this (and the EP) looks into European colonialism, how it sold the story of riches and adventure for those involved, and the reality of the damage its greed and exploitation caused.

Also, we have stuff on @ampwall.com too.in case that's more your speed.

This album had quite a few ups and downs!

Fair amount of touring which saw us play some gigs in England for the first time, a packed album launch show in Dundee, but a whole load of label nonsense we had to muck through.

This one's concept follows a warrior in the first crusade, questioning the holy war he's fighting for someone else and the reality/horrors he's facing and causing.

Side note: our singer is a big history nerd in case you couldn't tell.

Side side note: we know Deus Vult got co-opted by chuds as well

This album also spawned our first music video for The Betrayal!

Filmed in Dundee Uni union while some of the band were students there and involved with one of the local metal club nights, Distorted (there's some Dundonian deep cuts for you).

Yeah that's right, it's about space communism.

Roll the meme.

Another concept album, it imagines that the Roman Empire never ended and extended to space. A general sent to quell a planet but instead encounters a new way of living built on equity and equality, free from oppression and wealth hoarding and aims to spread it via popular revolution, but is betrayed

We don't break out songs from this album love too often, mostly as they're very old and not quite representative of who we are now, but we did add a few to our set list for a gig around it's 10th anniversary.

This is a concept album, capturing how a post-nuclear apocalypse would realise Thomas Hobbe’s concept of State of Nature – where life would be “solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short” in the absence of government.

As will become apparent, our lead vocalist Max has a thing for concept albums.
