Some news about the new album "Oath of the Abyss":

We were hoping to have this pressed on to LP before tour in December but, it does not look likely. However, Matt and Dark Descent productions is going to be pressing a CD version of the record and we are trying to have it ready for tour. Either way, we will have some form of the record for sale as well as some new merch in the way of T-shirts and patches.

Here are two links to download two of the mastered tracks from "Oath of the Abyss."

Penitence

Consummating Crypts of Eternity

The Outsider: Masters have arrived.

Oath of the Abyss is nearing completion. The Master tracks are in our hands and need to be sent off for vinyl mastering next. Expect a song or two from the final Master to be posted shortly.

We are in talks about doing a couple shows in the near future. An LP release show between RN and Seattle's Drawn and Quartered is in the works, as both our LP's have potential release dates falling around the same time. Also, lookout for a date in October with us and Portland's very own Black Metal deviants, Panzergod.
