KRATORNAS Unleashes Chaos with “Ravaged by Hurakaan” Lyric Video
Upcoming Album Release
Kratornas has unveiled the official lyric video for “Ravaged by Hurakaan,” the third track from their highly anticipated full-length album “God of the Tribes,” set to drop on August 22, 2025, via Grathila Records. This release follows the successful limited editions of the “Ravaged by Hurakaan” vinyl demo and remix cassette launched last month.
Exploring a New Sonic Direction
Clocking in at seven minutes, “Ravaged by Hurakaan” showcases a significant evolution in Kratornas’ musical direction. Departing from the frenetic pace typical of their earlier work, the band now emphasizes atmosphere, tension, and ritualistic elements. In a statement about the single, Kratornas reflects:
“This album marks a turning point for Kratornas. The first 15 years were deprived years. Not of ideas, but of the equipment to record them. That’s why I was stuck with simplicity, but it was never the plan. Now I have everything I need to get THAT sound. This album isn’t about being ‘advanced’ or ‘innovative’, it’s a return to roots, distilled into something raw and real.”
Lyric Video Insights
The lyric video provides fans with their first glimpse of the complete lyrics, which are described as “thick with metaphors” and open to diverse interpretations. The creators have intentionally crafted the words used in the ritualistic chants throughout the album to elicit strong psychological responses from listeners.
Visual Aesthetics and Thematic Elements
The video’s visuals align perfectly with the apocalyptic themes that have characterized Kratornas’ work since its inception in 1999, marking a shift from early Satanic motifs to a focus on doomsday prophecies. “Ravaged by Hurakaan” serves as an ideal introduction to “God of the Tribes,” melding the project’s new sonic approach with the intensity that has been a hallmark of Kratornas for nearly three decades. Fans of black metal are particularly encouraged to experience this track.
