"Norrtåget" is the latest offering from Kattlik, marking the first of six tracks recorded during the fall of 2023. This song captures the raw beauty of northern Sweden's wilderness, as experienced from the perspective of a train journey. It contrasts the urban grey with the vibrant green of nature, highlighting the isolation felt behind the train's window despite being surrounded by natural splendor. True to Kattlik's style, the track is an intricate fusion of groove, doom, and thrash metal elements, culminating in their unique brand of Death Metal. Kattlik stands out for its blend of Latin grooves and Swedish melancholy, with lyrics in Spanish, Swedish, or English, each adding a distinct flavor to their songs, unified by a theme of brutal, primeval power. This release is a must-listen for fans of bands like Sepultura, October Tide, Entombed, Amon Amarth, and Grave.
