Nytt Land release new music video for ‘Song Of U-Gra’

NYTT LAND have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Song Of U-Gra, is taken from the Russian ambient folk band’s upcoming new EP, Ritual: Blood Of The West, which is scheduled to be released in November this year, via Napalm Records.

Based on tracks from their latest album, Ritual, the upcoming EP features songs that have been reworked in gothic folk and western-inspired styles.

Speaking about the song and its accompanying music video, the band says, “this video repeats the plot of the original song in meaning, and this version of the song and the video were made to express our respect for the Native Americans, in addition to showing the cultural relationship of the indigenous peoples of Siberia and America. The tribes of the American Indians are the descendants of the Siberian tribes who migrated to the territory of America during the ice age fifteen thousand years ago.”

Speaking about the upcoming new EP, the band says, “we’ve said many times that country and blues music are some of our favorite music genres. This EP is our tribute and memory to those great musicians who stood at the very origins of American country and blues music, those whose music inspires us daily. For us, working on this album has become the most unusual, but at the same time extremely interesting experience. And we really love that we did it!”
