Natas are back! After the celebrated debut 'På veg... til helvette' the Norwegian black metal underground is ready to burst once again with 'Mara', a classic but energetic platter of dirty black metal in the best tradition of the second wave. Sustained by daring vocals and a punk-ish attitude, 'Mara' points out, again and again, how Norwegians are able to handle the genre in the best of ways.
About the new record, the band declares: "We know, 'Mara' is a name recurring a lot through the metal world, but to us it indicates most of all a decade of devilry, as it was the name of our first band as a whole. After the production and some live shows where songs of this record were played, several members of that band left to venture away from us and from our part, Natas metamorphosed into a new darker assault. So, 'Mara' leaves in a way our past behind: it was never meant to please, only to be documented and archived in the dungeons, underneath the Christian world as a celestial insult. We are proud of it. All hail darkness."
