Each reissue features brand new melody compositions, vocal lines and re-recorded guitars.
TENGGER CAVALRY frontman Nature Ganganbaigal said, "It has been years since I recorded the original versions of these reissue records. My life has changed a lot since then, and musically, I've changed too. I wanted to embrace more of the traditional music roots. I felt the original songs that I wrote years ago had the potential to be modified and improved, so I transformed the texture and melody, replacing death growling with throat singing, etc. The reissues represent the taste and status of this present moment of my life - my experiences, my emotions - bound with grassland."TENGGER CAVALRY is currently on a headline tour of North America with supporting guests INCITE on Sept. 28.
