WHY DID WE CONTRIBUTE TO THIS RELEASE?

We were originally contacted by Alex of Supernal way back in 2005. We sympathised with the general philosophy, and most importantly it was an opportunity to create a new Forefather track. Some people may have an issue with the political nature of the project, and we do not in the main consider Forefather a political enterprise, but we had no problem with such a one-off contribution.

The song itself came together very easily. I think I wrote and arranged all the music in less than half an hour on an acoustic guitar. Recording also went smoothly and we're very happy with the result. We hope you are too.

LOYALTY BOUND

Steadfast and bold, toiling through centuries
Nameless they are but through us prevail
Faithful and true, our lives are their gift to us
Through fire and ice our ancestors strove

Our seed spread deep in the soil
Sown with our own stubborn hands
To this is our loyalty bound
Far from wavering lands
