   About Northern Oak

Combining medieval and naturalistic melodies and rhythms with thrashy, black metal-inspired riffs, Northern Oak set out to create a uniquely and quintessentially English angle on the idea of ‘mature folk metal’ with a focus on the power of nature and spirituality, mirroring many traditional Pagan rituals.

Currently a five-man, one-woman nature and pagan-inspired folk metal band from Sheffield, Yorkshire.

New t-shirts now available! Check our Merchandise page for details!

Hiya. :)
It's NuM again with a new creation...
The track's called Skeptical and recreates the reflexions of many in regard to religions nowadays.
Please listen and enjoy, and if you have some time tell me what do you think about it.
Comments are greatly appreciated.

Cheers, NuM
