Hello Everyone!
We are ecstatic to release our new EP Descended to the world. It's out on our Bandcamp and our Ampwall.
Without going into details, 2024 was a bizarre, stressful, hectic, nightmarish year for your favourite degenerates in Arklay and we're really proud to end the year on a bang.
Descended picks up where Departed left off. Departed was a concept album about nuclear war, Descended is a concept album about an asteroid hitting the earth. We're bookending the year with a duology of destruction (so many d words).
And with that we announce that Arklay Mountains will be taking some time to rest. We don't know when we'll release music again after this, we just know that we WILL be releasing music after this.
For everyone who has ever interacted with us, listened to our songs (even if you skipped them), reviewed us, showed a friend or even chuckled at our dumb humour we are eternally grateful to and for you. Thank you so much for inviting us to be part of your lives.
I want to give a special shoutout to Noob Heavy and Syrup Moose Records. Back before twitter completely fell the fuck apart you embraced us and made us part of your family. Thank you to Valkyrja for writing an amazing review of our Dark Souls album.
Thank you to the Black Metal community for embracing us and taking us in even though we're the furthest thing from metal.
Extra extra special thank you to Bo Chappell for designing our logo and doing the album art for Geese, and for being the most wonderful and genuine person walking God's green earth. We love you Bo
From the very depths of our hearts and souls: We made music. We hope you liked it.
Here's to the future.
-Dave, John, Shawn

Hello Everyone,
We’re finally here on ampwall. We’ve decided not to port over all of our music from bandcamp. There’s a few albums that we put out on a “Free forever” caveat that will remain bandcamp exclusives. We will continue to do this for the future. All of our full length releases and our main EPs are here though so that’s pretty exciting right??????
We made a whole bunch of music. We hope you like it.
