Official Press Release : Across Tundras "Herds of the Fathomless Valleys"
Current mood:  awake

Hello friends,

Across Tundras started recording a batch of songs about 8 weeks ago with no set agenda, minus one song that we had to finish for a split 7" with fellow rockers US Christmas.

The original thought was to take some of the songs from these recordings sessions and self release them on a limited CDR EP. It became apparent when we started mixing and sifting through all the material that there was much more than a EP worth of well recorded, cohesive songs. So we decided to properly press and release this new CD (plus a few covers and new versions of old songs) ourselves and call it "Herds of the Fathomless Valleys."

"Herds of the Fathomless Valleys" (credit Washington Irving) is ten songs of epic, crushing panoramic rock and haunted folk that spans over seventy minutes. The tracks were recorded @ Headley Grange USA and are the first AT recordings with "The Nashville Sound," aka "The Dixie Earthmovers," along with longtime contributor Shannon Murphy on vocals. The production and performances are some of our best yet. Look for a late February release date and a special pre order soon!

Here is the tracklisting (not neccesarily in this order) :

1) Tectonic Shifts
2) Lake Bottom Blues
3) Badlands II
4) Julia Dream (Pink Floyd)
5) Plain Old John's Song
6) Weary Travelers Rest
7) Ramblin' II
8) Death Dealing Man
