Old Season

EPIC DOOM-LADEN IRISH HEAVY METAL

About Me

.. ..
WWW.OLDSEASON.COMOld Season is a Heavy Metal band hailing from the hallowed green pastures of Eireann. We play what has been termed Epic Doom-Laden Irish Heavy Metal.
To date, we have released one CD that was, in general, very well received by both critics and music fans. You can check out some of the reviews of Volume One in our blog section. We have recently had some line-up changes but the band is fully back on track now and anxious to put the finishing touches to the songs which will grace our next release.
We are primarily known as a live band, for the stage is truly where we feel most alive! We've had the pleasure of sharing stages with some really excellent bands, some of which can be seen in our top friends list, among (surprisingly!) friends of ours and other Irish bands well worth checking out.
Our website (www.oldseason.com) will be down for the foreseeable future, though you will be automatically re-directed to this page if you do go there. Also, please note our contact email has changed to [email protected] This is the only means of contacting the band, other than by sending us a message through MySpace. No other email addresses are working at this time.
Feel free to check out the three tracks that we have uploaded - they are all taken from our first CD and are free to download. We may put some other tracks online in the near future so watch this space! There's also a video of us playing recently in the Temple Bar Music Centre too in our Videos section.
There's also a few live videos of us on YouTube; just do a search for "Old Season".
Mostly, the man responsible for making us look cool in these videos is this very talented fella: http://www.youtube.com/user/suolasfilms
Finally, Old Season would like to thank the artist John O' Fathaigh for the very fine backdrop to this page.
Thank you for checking out our band and hails to you and yours...
