In the Land of Ghosts

Following the debut album “an Gorta Mór” which focused on the great famine in Ireland, Olde Throne return with their sophomore release which steps away from Ireland and takes place in the land of ghosts... Scotland. “In the Land of Ghosts” is a collection of ghost stories and dark tales from a land bountiful of ghosts and ghouls. From the headless horseman of the House of Dun to the ghost soldiers still fighting in the wooded gorge of Killiecrankie. The album also includes a bonus track re-recording of the first demo “An Torr” commemorating the massacre of Glencoe in 1692. “From a bygone world their souls remain” credits: Olde Throne is: Harrison McKenzie - Guitars, Bass, Vocals Quentin Forster - Drums Guest Musicians: Stavros Stavrou - Folk instrument arrangements on "Isobel" Pereg Ar Bagol - Bagpipes and accordion on "Cliffs of Culzean" Antonio Bustabad - Uilleann pipes on "The Curse of Alloa Tower" Josh Mundey - Spoken word on "The Curse of Alloa Tower" and "Cliffs of Culzean" Tom Oakes - Flutes on "Killiecrankie" Produced by Harrison McKenzie Recorded between September and December 2022 Mixed and mastered by Seiðr Jonsson of Dark Prod.
