KRATORNAS Announces “Ravaged by Hurakaan” Vinyl and Cassette Demo Ahead of Upcoming Album "God of the Tribes" Out August 2025

Saskatoon, Canada's Kratornas is set to unleash a special vinyl demo on May 20th and remix cassette on May 30th, 2025, through Grathila Records. These releases serve as a prelude to the highly anticipated full-length album “God of the Tribes,” scheduled for release on August 20th, 2025. The mastermind behind Kratornas comments:

"This album marks a turning point for KRATORNAS. Not because it tries to be “different” but because it couldn’t have come out any other way. Every part of this release came together naturally. The sound, the pacing, the tension... it wrote itself, shaped by instinct and intention. This album is unlike the usual Kratornas, so anyone expecting it to sound like “early Kratornas” will be disappointed.

The 7" vinyl demo features “Ravaged by Hurakaan” on Side A, with Side B containing an instrumental “Drum and Bass” version of the same track. This vinyl-exclusive release will not be available in digital format, making it a true collector's item for dedicated fans. Simultaneously, Kratornas will release a remix of the track on cassette. Both the vinyl and the upcoming album were mastered by Dan Swanö (Edge of Sanity).

"Ravaged by Hurakaan" serves as track #3 on the upcoming full-length album "God of the Tribes," giving fans an early taste of what to expect from the new material. Unlike previous Kratornas releases known for their "superfast brutality," this new material focuses on build-up and atmosphere, showcasing a significant evolution in sound.

The new material features previously unexplored instrumentation, including a 7-string guitar for L/R channels and a 6-string fretless bass, moving away from blast beats and heavily distorted guitars toward a more nuanced approach. Black Metal fans, especially those with an interest in “being progressive”, should take note.
