HAMBURG, GERMANY
Monstrous black/doom/punk chimera MANTAR have released a dazzling teaser video hinting a brand new song called "Age Of The Absurd".
The track comes off MANTAR's upcoming third studio album, The Modern Art Of Setting Ablaze, set to be unleashed on August 24, 2018 via Nuclear Blast.
The Modern Art Of Setting Ablaze is a title in-keeping with MANTAR's symbolic obsession with fire on albums previous; this time disavowing mankind's tendency to blindly follow those that would lead us into oblivion. This isn't necessarily a political statement; more a morbid fascination with current smoldering tensions that threaten to set the minds of the masses on fire.
Stay tuned for more information coming soon regarding the release of The Modern Art Of Setting Ablaze. Find the cover below this message.
MANTAR is currently on the road, playing select club shows as well as Europe's biggest festivals. See dates below.
