Birthed in the open spaces of the western United States and now nestled in Nashville, Tennessee, Across Tundras combines a wide variety of influences for a unique and original sound. In the six years since the massive, unrelenting dirge of their debut album, Divides, the band has been pigeonholed into all sorts of micro-genres-the simple truth of the matter is they fit in everywhere and nowhere at once. Sage, their fifth full-length, is their most personally artistic yet. Cohesively incorporating the classic vibes of Johnny Cash and Neil Young, the ominous heaviness of Black Sabbath and Neurosis, and all points in between, it's organic, progressive and heavy as hell.

Across Tundras... one of the more inspiring bands out there..
I didnt have any prior experience with Across Tundras prior to purchasing Sage.. I bought the album because it was released on Neurot Recordings.. I respect Scott Kelly and Steve Von Till so when they recommended this band I took notice.. I must say the first listen was interesting but uninspiring.. but the third listen I was floored.. this band has gotten me excited about discovering new bands again.. the mixture of psychedelic stoner rock with country music and americana is truly inspiring.. BUY THIS ALBUM! You'll be supporting a great band a record label.. and catch them live if you have the chance... also look into singer TG Olson's solo material if you like Across Tundras

heavy western
""Birthed from the open spaces of the western United States and now nestled in Nashville, Tennessee; Across Tundras has been a band which has always been able to convey the feeling of being in the presence of severity through their music. Their fifth and most recent release, "Sage," accomplishes this in a way unfamiliar to even the most loyal of `AT' listeners. Their latest effort, "Sage," easily proves to be their most personally artistic yet. The album brings together those influences that make Across Tundras so unique, the classic vibes of Johnny Cash and Neil Young, to the ominous heaviness of Black Sabbath and Neurosis, all points visited between, in a cohesive and natural way. It's organic, progressive, and heavy as all haill.""
