“The Last of a Dying Breed” encapsulates everything that has made Under the Oak a relentless force in the metal scene.

The album includes ten original tracks that showcase Under the Oak’s signature sound. In true homage to their heroes, they’ve also included a special cover song that fans will instantly recognize. For the first time, the band has collaborated with guest musician Jan-Erik Johansen, who adds a unique twist with a standout triangle performance.
Under the Oak continues to blaze a trail, pushing boundaries while staying rooted in the heavy metal tradition that defined their origins. “The Last of a Dying Breed” is not only a reflection of their storied history but a testament to the passion, grit, and brotherhood that drives them forward.
