Oak & Bone live at Castle Rockmoore from Matt Hall on Vimeo.
In a time when prehistoric beings ruled the land, there was a constant battle of hierarchy. This battle was known by all powerful beasts as, The Battle of Aptitude and Ultimate Power. Years and years had passed, and battle raged on. Brontosaurus, and Sabertooth Tigers had all passed. Death had come to the monsters of the sea and to the beasts of the land. Tyranosaurus fell into piles of dust and blood. All had been ravaged by the mighty beasts. Plant life had diminished and herbivores were no more. On one fateful day a Pterydactol challanged a Mastodon. The mastodon chased the beastly bird as it flew through the air. The mastodon struck the pterydactol in the belly over and over. The pterydactol was distracted by his wounds and wasnt paying attention to where he was headed. His body hurled into a mighty oak tree. All at once the bird disintegrated His flesh and organs vanished into thin air. All that was left were bones. The bones fell to the bottom of the oak tree and buried themselves into its roots. The mastodon looked around and felt victorious. As he viewed his land he realized that he was the only one left. There was no longer food or sustainance. No plants or water. He was all alone. He had become victorious over everything that he needed to survive. Suddenly feeling more defeated than ever, the mastodon crawled over to the tree and laid there until he met his demise to hunger and mal-nourishment. His body eventually decayed and his bones slowly sunk into the same oak tree that had brought him such victory over his final enemy. All was barren, but what the earth didn't know was that a new breed would soon be born. From the roots of the oak and the bones of mighty beasts grew a sound. A sound that can only be paralleled by the war that they once stood amidst. This power would never truly be explained or understood. The power of the Oak, and the Bone.
