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

NYTT LAND have released a new music video!

The new music video, U-Gra, is taken from the Russian ambient and folk duo’s upcoming new album, Ritual, which is scheduled to be released in August this year.

Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, the band says, U-Gra has become a special song for us, as this is our dedication to ancient Siberia. Since it was in antiquity that the lands of the Western and central part of Siberia were called “Ugra”. Ugorian land. The ancestral home of several European peoples – Finns, Hungarians and Sami.

The song U-Gra is based on the ancient legend of the Siberian native tribe Khanty. It tells the story of the guardian spirits of the land where the tribe lives. At the beginning and the end of the song, a real ritual conspiracy of spirits sounds, in which the shaman asks them to be kind to their people, help people and keep the land on which the tribe lives. And our seven-year-old son Yuri played one of the main roles in the video U-Gra.”

Ritual is set for release on August 6th via Napalm Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
