Un nouvel extrait du prochain NEGURĂ BUNGET


Le groupe de Black Folk Metal atmosphérique Negură Bunget sortira son nouvel album le 26 novembre 2021 via Prophecy Productions. Il s'intitule Zău et il s'agit du dernier chapitre de la trilogie transylvanienne démarré en 2015 avec Tău puis suivi en 2016 par Zi.

Prophecy Productions explique que cet opus est le point culminant, le dénouement de Negură Bunget. Il a été créé à partir des pistes de batterie qu'avait enregistré Gabriel "Negru" Mafa avant son décès le 21 mars 2017 ainsi que des nombreuses démos et enregistrements préliminaires retrouvés dans le studio. Ce matériel, une fois regroupé avec soin a été repris par le dernier line-up dont c'était entouré le leader qui a travaillé dessus en respectant le plus possible les désirs et la volonté de Negru. 

Voici un troisième extrait du résultat avec le titre "Toacă Din Cer" (en version edit) qui fait suite à "Brad" et "Tinerețe Fără Bătrânețe"

Voici le communiqué du label : "When the creative mastermind and driving force behind NEGURĂ BUNGET, drummer Gabriel "Negru" Mafa suffered a terminal heart-attack on March 21, 2017 is tragic passing seemed to dictate that his grand vision of a metal-anchored musical interpretation of Romania's beautiful landscapes, traditions, and myths as well as his homeland's spiritually was doomed to remain as unfinished as Beethoven's 10th symphony. 

Yet the veteran musicians that had been with Negru in the final incarnation of NEGURĂ BUNGET's ever-changing line-up were not prepared to give up let his vision slip into unheard obscurity. By sheer luck, Negru's drum tracks for "Zău" had already been laid down and recorded before the band's final tour. All the sketches, demos, and rehearsal room recordings that they had been working on were painstakingly gathered, and each band member respectfully filled in the gaps in the same way as they would have done with the remaining co-founder of NEGURĂ BUNGET still alive; in utter dedication to the original idea. 

The result of this labour of love is "Zău", the stunning culmination and climax of NEGURĂ BUNGET's musical evolution and the "Transylvanian trilogy". On this album, the traditions of black and dark pagan metal have been completely fused with elements from Romania's rich musical heritage. Rich textures and epic cinematic passages make way for fragile and tranquil moments to be superseded by furious outbreaks. Just like the ever changing nature of Romania's Banat and Transylvania, "Zău" captures the colours and moods of the turn of the seasons in these lands and brings ancient legends to live.
