Folk metallers Manntra have unveiled their haunting new single/video, "Unholy Water (Voda)" - a dark and powerful fusion of Balkan mysticism, rebellion, and unholy rituals - from their forthcoming full-length, Titans, due on 14 March via Napalm Records.
"Unholy Water (Voda)" is a powerful fusion of Manntra's signature Balkan influences and high-energy metal. The song lures listeners in with an intense, mystic atmosphere while maintaining a strong, infectious beat, with powerful metallic rhythms and traditional folk melodies, creating a unique, engaging vibe, making it a standout for folk metal fans with a touch of darkness and ancient imagery.
Manntra on the new single: "'Unholy Water', with its stormy rhythm and ethnic/folk Croatian traditional female choir, sets the stage for a song where your life is at stake. Will you embrace the darkness of the unholy water, or will you bravely forge ahead as an uncorrupted warrior?"
