Overview

A Bitter Harvest --- 2023-10-09

In the late summer of 2004 Uprising would record what would end up being their final 4 song session. This session would receive a very rough mix in '04 and even though all 4 songs would be released on the internet through Uprising's now-defunct website, these four songs never saw an "official" release. For years, it was assumed that the original track files from the session were lost to the sands of time. But in 2022 Nate, Uprising's singer, discovered a bunch of Uprising records and songs in storage and in there were 4 burned CD's that had the original session files. After successfully recovering the track files Nate went to work giving them a proper mix This song, called 'A Bitter Harvest', tells the story of the horror brought upon the Arawak people by the landing forces of Christopher Columbus. A Bitter Harvest was originally supposed to be on a split 7 inch with Spanish neocrust group Imperial Backyard.
