    One-man atmospheric black metal project, Ruadh, return with their sophomore album entitled ‘The Rock of the Clyde’ There will be six tracks of epic, Scottish, atmospheric black metal with folk elements throughout. ‘The Rock of the Clyde’ is an evolution from their debut album ‘Sovereign’. It has a much more melodic feel yet has more visceral elements too. Tom Perrett, hailing from Rutherglen (also known as the red glen) in the central belt of Scotland looks to forge a sound akin to the classics he has always enjoyed such as Bathory, Burzum, Windir and Emperor. Ruadh’s sound will also appeal to fans of newer atmospheric black metal bands such as Saor, Winterfylleth and Panopticon. ‘The Rock of the Clyde’ contains six tracks that are massive in both scope and scale, taking you through the Iron Ages in Scotland. It also explores the history and mythology of the people of Scotland, conveying both sorrow and uplifting, almost heroic tones.

lyrics

A fortress of stone on the banks of the Clyde
casting it's shadow upon river so strong
imposing the landscape a vantage for sight
It stands through time and the changing of hands
The fort of the Britons the seat of the southern kingdom
The Rock of the Clyde

The Rock of the Clyde
"Lost in the memories of long dead bards who's words and stories gave life to this land
Ingrained in our fabric in our nations tale"

A fortress of stone on the banks of the Clyde
casting it's shadow upon river so strong
imposing the landscape a vantage for sight
It stands through time and the changing of hands
The fort of the Britons the seat of the southern kingdom
The Rock of the Clyde



A fortress of stone on the banks of the Clyde
casting it's shadow upon river so strong
imposing the landscape a vantage for sight
It stands through time and the changing of hands
The fort of the Britons the seat in the southern kingdom
The Rock of the Clyde

From ages of iron to modern day it stands atop the river proud
Though many structures have dawned it peaks still it remains unbent by time a monument of the past
the Rock of the Clyde

about

Ruadh image

Ruadh Glasgow, UK

RUADH (which is pronounced "Roo-Ah" and translates to "red") is the Atmospheric Black Metal project of Tom Perrett from Glasgow, Scotland.

Tom was born and raised in one of the oldest Burghs in Scotland, which translates to "The red glen". The derivation of the town's name is unclear but one theory is that the area was once a settlement of Reuther, a Scottish king who ruled between 213 &187 BC. ... more
