Influences
Our individual influences differ alot but here are some bands that have had an influence on the music we write together:
Ensiferum, At the Gates, Amon Amarth, Dissection, Moonsorrow, Pre Colony In Flames, Death, Blind Guardian, Wintersun, Hypocrisy, Elvenking, Iron Maiden, Mithotyn, Children of Bodom, Bolt Thrower, Manowar, Dark Tranquility, Kalmah, Opeth, Kataklysm, Arch Enemy, Arsis, Bal-Sagoth, Immortal, Finntroll, Sirenia, Epoch of Unlight, Borknagar, Neuraxis, Slough Feg, Ulver, Forefather.. and more!
In the frost-bitten Canadian winter of '04 Alec and Riley embarked unto a style reflecting the influences of past times. Foretold through the mixing of heavy melodic influences and that of a grimmer background, the band developed its melodic death metal style. It was in that year that the first song began to take its form, untitled, it was to set the mold from which future songs would develop. Following the conclusion of the untitled track the band went on hiatus for the summer.
Reuniting in September '05, Alec and Riley moved into a house with their new apprentice Mike and quickly set to work on new material for their demo. With themes surrounding ancient warfare and the quest for power the new material continues to evolve into a more original, and powerful style.

Motherfuckin Riley-
I wanted to let you know that SMNnews has a new Disgorge forum up. I'm on the Decrepit Birth one more myself, but I bounce around.
Check it out.
Hailz,
The new song is awesome. I wish that you guys could do a show for me and Claire. We're booking one beginning of April, and it would be amazing to have a nice black metal-ish band play. Good to see you guys are progessing with song writing even without being able to get out and play. You'll find someone soon I hope.
