German duo Mantar has carved a distinctive niche in extreme music with their uncompromising blackened death-punk sound. Their latest release, "Post Apocalyptic Depression", that will come out in the first half od February, represents a visceral return to rawness, reconnecting with the primitive energy of their celebrated debut "Death by Burning" (2014). Known for their unrelenting grooves and snarling punk attitude, the band’s fifth studio album embodies a no-holds-barred ethos, with stripped-down, dirty production and electrifying tracks like Church of Suck and Rex Perverso. Emphasizing spontaneity and raw creativity, Post Apocalyptic Depression delivers an unfiltered and visceral listening experience, perfectly suited for their dynamic live performances.
Having toured extensively across Europe, the US, Japan, Latin America, and beyond, Mantar’s music resonates with a wide audience while staying fiercely independent and authentic. Their visual aesthetic, once again shaped by Aron Wiesenfeld’s haunting artwork, reinforces their unique identity in the extreme music scene. As they close their first decade as a band, Hanno and Erinc remain focused on their legacy, creating music that stays true to their roots while embracing the chaos of the present.
