Walk Away | Sea of Wood Records | 'Walk Away ' is Tulegur's second album to be released internationally and comes after a time of reflection and evolution. The original duo has now transformed into a trio. Focussing on the lead singer’s struggle to reconcile his ethnic Mongolian identity with a modern upbringing and a lack belonging to either, it takes folk melodies and folk inspired melodies sung in a traditional style and smashes them against grunge and prog rock particles in a musical hadron collider of an album. - PR | * | 0:10:57 (MP3 | Pop-up) |
