Los Natas - Ciudad de Brahman (1999)

Artwork by Artist Frank Kozik

Released on the legendary "Man's Ruin Records" label, this is the second full record by Argentinian rockers "Los Natas". It was produced by Dale Crover (formerly of The Melvins) and recorded in USA. The band cites influences such as Black Sabbath, The Doors, Pink Floyd, The Who and Hawkwind among others and there is definitely parts of the album which is on a level with it's contemporaries. The album is sung in the bands native tongue of Spanish although some of their other material is in English. Their early efforts have been compared with the mighty "Kyuss" and any fans of them or Stoner rock in general will love this hard rocking album which is full of heavy driving riffs and long earthy jams.
Each of their albums has a distinctive sound and the band are constantly evolving their sound and I will almost definitely be posting more "Natas" in the future, I recommend their debut release "Delmar" and the follow up to "Ciudad" titled "Corsario Negro".
