Our Bandcamp of the day features Minnesota black metal nomad, Panopticon, with their brand new EP, Beast Rider. All money made from this release will go towards bands and artists who are currently struggling with cancelled gig and tour dates, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. An incredibly generous gesture, from an incredibly talented musician.
Panopticon comments:
I recorded these over the past weeks so I could raise some money to donate to musicians who are hard up during these times.
The pandemic crisis is really hurting a lot of independent musicians, so I’d like to contribute in what ever way I can.
Every penny I receive from this release will be forwarded to musicians that I know who are struggling from cancelled gigs and tours, lost income that they depended on.
If you know anyone who is hard up during this time, please feel free to drop me a line and let me know who. This is a dark time. Lets look out for one another. Please stay safe out there…
Don’t let the fire burn out.A
Beast Rider features two “electric” versions of some of Panopticon’s work, specifically the tracks “Beast Rider” and “Norwegian Nights”.
