Mantarin uusi albumi julkaistaan ensi helmikuussa – ensimmäinen single ”Halsgericht” nyt julki
Saksalainen sludge metal -yhtye Mantar ilmoittaa seuraavan albuminsa, “Post Apocalyptic Depression”, julkaistavan ensi ystävänpäivänä eli helmikuun 14. päivä 2025. Yhtyeen laulaja-kitaristi Hanno Klänhardt kertoo tulevasta albumista ja sen tekemisestä:
“We wanted to do everything different from the last album. The last album was very produced. A huge sounding record with clean production. Display of power. That was what we wanted and felt at that time. Now we are trying to destroy what we’ve built up with the last album. There is a certain beauty in disappointing people’s expectations.
Quick and dirty. We didn’t even bring our own gear to the studio, and just used the equipment that we would find there. There was zero planning involved in the making of this album. We wanted to keep it as primitive as possible. We were bolder this time and literally cut any shit off the songs that we didn’t think was necessary. I think you can hear that and playing these new songs is more fun. I feel very connected with my punk roots on this album. Very punk rock production and next to our first album definitely the most raw sounding one.”

Yhtye julkaisi tulevan albumin ensimmäisen singlen ”Halsgericht” kuunneltavaksi jo nyt. Klänhardt kertoo myös singlestä:
“The title means something like ‘the right to impose extra heavy punishment.’ Mantar style. Old fashioned darkness. It’s fun to not only finally work with a German song title but also introduce some German lines to the song. It makes it weird and sinister. Just what we like. Especially in the US, people seem to love these kinda vibes. Fine by us. Celebrating it with the most epic hook of the whole album.” Hanno Klänhardt
