METATOTEM by Across Tundras Nashville, Tennessee's panoramic country crushers Across Tundras' Neurot Recordings debut, Sage , was released in May 2011, capturing the band's heritage perfectly, through an amalgam of haunting doom-tinged Americana, melding echoes of traditional country blues and psychedelic sludge. Their organic sound is well-honed, marking it as their most fully realized album to date with all of their influences and elements flowing cohesively. Across Tundras will be heading "out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels" on a massive American tour this Spring [...]
T.G. Olson , voce e chitarra degli Across Tundras è caldo come una stufa. Attivissimo tra progetti solisti e collaborazioni, ha pubblicato un pò di materiale su bandcamp. Con il progetto Muddy Water Dredge Company Olson si butta a capofitto nel folk ma in maniera non convenzionale. Rispettoso della tradizione con l'uso di armonica e slide guitars, lo fonde con il caldo abbraccio del blues spingendo a volte verso una dimensione 'sonica' , per esempio su 'Joe Henry'. Olson suona tutto ( T.G. Olson - Guitars, Vocals, Drums, [...]
<p>&lt;a href=" http://acrosstundras.bandcamp. com/album/metatotem"&g t;METATOTEM by Across Tundras&lt;/a& gt;</p> Non siamo sulle vette di Sage ma sono gli ultimi Across Tundras, quelli che mi piacciono di più quindi l'ascolto e il download gratuito vale la pena farlo. Perla del lotto "Cosmic Dust Bowl".
Non c'è casualità nello sprofondare dentro 'Sage', il nuovo disco degli Across Tundras , e iniziare a leggere 'Sutree' di McCarthy . Musica e testo non parlano lo stesso linguaggio ma parlano della stessa terra, America rurale musicata su composizioni che sanno di terra e fango, polvere e sangue raggrumato. Ho già fatto qualche passo dentro la bibliografia di McCarthy (Non è un paese per vecchi e La strada), con gli Across Tundras sono all'inizio e ci sono ben sei dischi da ascoltare e digerire, tutti in streaming su [...]

Good Sunday, all. Great Sunday, if you've also read this article about bacon-flavored vodka ! More bars should take this recipe and put it to use. Hell, more people I know should put this recipe to use. That way when I come over and someone says, "sorry brah, all I've got is vodka," I won't be so quick to call the person a fucking pussy and walk out of their house. Can't you think of anybody but yourself? Christ, I just wanted to unwind with a little drink after work but you're telling me I can't have a bacon-enriched [...]

YOUR. FUCKING. MINDS. Load up the bong, and read on... Cult sludge act [...]

In a time now where many are going out and saying to hell with making frenetically paced screamo/hardcore music and taking up producing music of epic post-rock proportions, it is ridiculously hard to weed through all of these bands. Where everyone wants to sound like the next Isis or Pelican , it just makes it all that much harder for those that do take an innovative and different approach to this genre to get noticed. I’ll honestly admit that when I see a RIYL on some page that lists any of the main post metal/rock [...]
