Negura Bunget

About

The Romanian black metal band Negura Bunget released an special edition album that came with a hand crafted wooden box that was decorated with rope and contained an a fair amount of dirt from Transylvania. This package perfectly illustrates what type of band Negura Bunget is. It's a group that pulls heavily from Eastern European aesthetics as well as mythology and interjects elements into its music. The band is well respected within serious music circles, though, and each concert is more of a visceral experience than a typical display of instrumental and musical prowess.
