Review: Well Sweden isn't 100% melodic as we were used lately. Nattas are proving those lands are still full of wrath and blasphemy. This is their second release I have the pleasure to review, so I can tell you they have improved a lot both musically and look-wise. They are much more demonic and demonic now, a good visual shape for their music which I said it's Motorhead having some beers with Iron Maiden and Exodus on a black/thrash highway, so that might be a description that I hope will give a clue of their music. The rhythms are old-school influenced with deep roots in the heavy thrash metal '80's scene and the vocal is old-fashioned as well, with understandable lyrics. there's melody too, but that's created by guitars mostly and by some, very discrete, keyboard touches. All in all this is a very tight album with killer tracks and I'm pretty sure they'll soon find a label to produce this stuff. An album for all of you fans of thrash and old-school black metal; something new and refreshing cause although '80's rooted, Nattas are pretty modern in sound and approach. Congratulations for your work, guys!
