THE DREAD CREW OF ODDWOOD is touring in support of their freshly released fifth album, Rust & Glory, a thirteen-song treasure-trove of all-acoustic rippers which present a finely honed sound and creative voice that is truly unlike anything else in the metal scene today. From anthems like ‘Lawful Evil’ and ‘Leather Ship’ to drinking songs like ‘Give Me Your Beer’ and ‘Corpse Juice Medley’, the album is sure to get heads banging, feet stomping, and audiences singing across the globe.

Recorded at Seahorse Sound Studios in Los Angeles, THE DREAD CREW OF ODDWOOD enlisted the help of fellow folk metal musician Anna Murphy (Cellar Darling, ex-Eluveitie) who engineered, produced, and mixed the record, her input and expertise helping push Rust & Glory forward as the finest collection of songs the band has created to date. Several guests joined the party, with double bass by Bass Princess, hurdy gurdy by Anna Murphy, and additional vocals by Anna Murphy and Madison Lowery. As with their prior album, mastering duties were again handled by Svante Forsbäck (Rammstein, Korpiklaani, Ensiferum), and artist Mark Gibbons (Blizzard Entertainment, Games Workshop, Rookery Publications) delivered another stunning cover painting.

THE DREAD CREW OF ODDWOOD has posted a track-by-track write-up of Rust & Glory including their incredible ‘Leather Ship’ video; check it out right HERE

Rust & Glory is now streaming everywhere, and is also available on Oceania and Red w/ Black Splatter vinyl LP variants limited to 250 each at the band’s webshop and Bandcamp
