<B>Chris says:</B> This song was written almost entirely by our highly-esteemed bass player, Mr. Richard J. Allan Esquire. And honestly, it's not that bad! :P Lyrically, I believe it's centred around the Peasant's Revolt of 1381, but with a particularly Northern spin on it due to Monsieur Allan's social background and upbringing.

Musically, this song has become a bit like Marmite in the Northern Oak camp; while we all really like the song itself, I hate playing the guitar-only introduction since I always mess it up, and Catie isn't fond of the guitar/flute call/response bit later on since, in her words, "It's all just accidentals!" I believe that's a music theory term, or something, but anyway... it builds from a solo guitar arpeggio with the other instruments coming into a kind of clean groove, before everything suddenly gets all neoclassical with the aforementioned call/response section. Then a speedy bass break before we go into some heavy folkin' metal towards the end. Oh, and the rest of the band bullied me into playing a big shreddy guitar solo despite my protestations that I didn't think the song needed one. Oh well! :P

<B>Martin says:</B> When Rich put his masterpiece together he'd also written a series of words to accompany them, which I have to say I rather liked! A few words have been sliced from the original in order to fit the words to my style and the music but it is ultimately his piece still. As much as I enjoyed this though, I draw the line at football metaphors *stares pointedly at Rich*.
