10 Great Hard Rock Songs You Won't Find On Spotify

10. A Tale For The Ages - Hot Cross

Honestly, trying to Google these guys without getting millions of hits for hot cross buns is basically impossible.

Bearing no obvious connection to the Easter-related treat, Hot Cross were a post-hardcore band that formed in Philadelphia in 2000. Comprised of other members of various groups from across the genre, they put out two studio albums before calling it a day in 2007.

The band has a pretty small Spotify presence, with only around 1,800 monthly listeners. Their most popular song, Turncoat Revolution, has just over 150,000 listens, which is nothing to sniff at, but equally not anything to write home about.

Turncoat Revolution is from their second album Risk Revival. In fact, everything they have on Spotify is from that album, as their debut release Cryonics is nowhere to be found.

That ten-track record has some great stuff on there if you're a fan of lo-fi, unconventionally structured music. The track we've picked out is A Tale for the Ages, which is a great showcase of singer Billy Werner's croaky voice and drummer Greg Drudy's erratic playing style.

It's on their Bandcamp, if you're interested.
