FOR PROMOTIONAL USE ONLY! RELEASE DATE: JANUARY 19TH 2018 PRESS ASSETS: Waw Soundcloud Hi-res cover (By Peter-John De Villiers) Press picture (By Terje Arntsen) Unge Kniva is the third single from Ondt Blod's second album "Natur". "Natur" is scheduled for release on Fysisk Format worldwide on March 9th and is produced by Blood Command's Yngve Andersen. Here's singer Aslak's summary of the song: "Unge Kniva (Young Knives) is a about being young, angry, and I crashing the Spellemann-party (the Norwegian Grammys party). Where the privileged let us in, we take what we want. Where they don’t, we build our own castles. Our time is now." “Natur” is a Sami scream from the far north. Made 100 years after the first indigenous political organising in Norway, This is a Sami call to arms against the still on-going colonization and oppression. “Natur” celebrates the duality of human nature, where champagne meets cyanide, machine-gun riffs meet the catchiest choruses out of Scandinavia since ABBA. Despite of having only released one album, Ondt Blod have a lot to show for. Not only have Ondt Blod been deemed the “pride of the North” in Norwegian media; their debut-album “Finnmark” was nominated as the “new-comer of the year” for the Norwegian equivalent to the Grammys in 2016, and they have been listed on Norwegian national radio with five songs. The band has toured Norway alongside Kvelertak, and played the Roskilde Festival in 2016. With "Natur", Ondt Blod has made an album that is at once a razor sharp political confrontation and a hedonistic celebration. Prepare to be colonized! Photo by Terje Arntsen
