Name your price spotlight - Across Tundras

Exactly what is says on the tin, the "name your price" spotlight is something I'll feature on here from time to time, and the aim is to draw awareness to some good music on Bandcamp that you can either pay what you want for or get for free. It seems to be a pricing model adopted by quite a few bands and labels in an attempt to get their music to a wider audience, so with this in mind we figured it's good to help them achieve this while introducing you to some good music which won't cost you to hear it, although of course should you like what you hear and choose to donate I'm sure they'd appreciate it :-)

Starting off this feature then, I'll introduce you to Across Tundras, a band blending psychedelic style desert rock, doom, and a healthy dose of Americana. The most common sort of description I see of this band is Neurosis meets Neil Young, and this I think sums them up pretty well. Certainly unique, decent stuff, the link below will take you to their Bandcamp page where they have a lot of releases, including some of T.G. Olson's solo work, and most of it is available for whatever you wish to pay

This song here will give you a taste, and is a personal favourite, hope you enjoy it anyway :-)

Arise From Ashes debut album

Some may remember last year we featured The Wolves Of Avalon on our forum as they released the excellent 'Boudicca's Last Stand'. Well, two of their members have gotten together to form a black metal band, Arise From Ashes. Their debut album is available to stream on Bandcamp now, and you can pick it up there pretty cheaply in physical or digital from if you like what you hear.
