Norwegian blackened hardcore trio NAG have just dropped a new song titled “Unlimited Power Ballad”, a new single taken from the band's forthcoming third album "Boys of Europe" due out on April 12th via Fysisk Format.
This new track has premiered at Invisible Oranges, who commented "The working title for this song was "the pop song", because it's a little different from the typical NAG-song. A little slower, and almost like something that could be on the radio. In a sense, the song is the NAG-version of "What if God was one of us", except he's not a slob like one of us, more a well-meaning local councillor-type ... All in all, a fun and different song that we like a lot!"
The band had this to say about this new track: “The title itself is nicked from a Norwegian run-of-the-mill men’s clothing store franchise, but the song, of course, has a more ominous subject than menswear.
“Boys of Europe takes you on a brief and intense roller coaster ride through Europe’s history of strife and warfare. A history that clearly has not come to an end.”
Nicked from a Norwegian standard men's clothing store franchise, "Boys of Europe" has little to do with menswear, instead revolving around the ongoing war affecting Europe. NAG nail the age we live in well on the title track, where they put you on a brief and intense roller coaster ride through Europe’s history of strife and warfare. There are no preaching or military analyses to be found here, only a hint in the familiar resigned NAG-style: We’re not done yet. When the screaming feedback and the echo from the final NAG-howl on the album fades, you will probably not worry less about the future.
