Beyond the Treeline is a monthly series maintained by Apanthropy.org editor Andrew Krause, in which the underground extreme music scene is examined and curated.
Volume I is, obviously, our debut episode. For our very first foray into video recording and editing, it came out reasonably okay. We plan to make some changes on future volumes, but the function and purpose shall remain the same.
Assuming you’ve been to the Apanthropy YouTube channel, or perhaps watched Beyond the Treeline, you’ll know these particular posts are supplemental to our monthly series. Here, we post all the social media and merch links for the bands we’ve chosen to focus on. There are also some embedded tracks if you’re interested in checking out a band or record a bit more closely.
As you know, we break each episode down by the following categories:
Underground Discoveries
Debut Albums
Demos
The Underground Discovery of the Month
The Demo of the Month
The Essential Reissue of the Month
Here is Beyond the Treeline – Vol I, July 2026:
