Progressive post-metal from the Ukraine.
Bands who explore beyond the traditions of metal art for album covers are few and far in between. NUG are among those who do, yielding an exquisite artistic result by way of Roman artist Mateya Yovbak. who matches the vibrant complexities of the band's new record Alter Ego. Set to arrive on August 14th via Willowtip Records, Alter Ego introduces the world to the talented array within the progressive post-metal ranks of NUG. Take lead single Beast / Звір for a spin and engage.
NUG on the new record:
"This album is a kind of checkpoint for us. For a very long time, we all (together and separately) spent a lot of time on the music, and in this material coded our feelings, thoughts, emotions, hopes, and finally, the particles of our lives.
The album is about spiritual struggling with the alter-ego. This kind of fight may be the most difficult and one long experienced in human life. If you are one of those people who is in this fight right now, we hope that this album will help you in some way. Good luck!"
