“I drew much of my inspiration for Ionika
from Druid history and folklore,” says Taara
Tati of Metal Mother. Following-up to her 2011 debut Bonfire
Diaries, the Oakland artist’s latest is scheduled for release on April
16th via her own Post Primal
label. Black Book has exclusively premiered the album’s first official
single “Prism” today.
Tati’s unique use of heavy electronic and tribal drums,
obscure arrangements, Celtic-melancholic vocal layering, and dark, analog synth
melodies are what first drew attention to her work in 2011. The sounds came
together in a way that pleased fans of artists such as Cocteau Twins, Kate Bush,
Enya, and Nine Inch Nails.
Bonfire Diaries”, and its mesmerizing video
for the single “Shake,” went on to
receive numerous press accolades, including a “Best of 2011” designation from
the San Francisco Bay Guardian which
described Tati as “some sort of neon,
acid-drenched wood nymph.” San Francisco-based glossy SOMA described Bonfire Diaries as “full of
beautiful, eerie, unfamiliar sounds,” and Performer
Magazine gave Metal Mother its cover.
Now Tati
has made good on the promise of her first record with Ionika, a stunning
sophomore set. “Ionika differs from Bonfire Diaries in that one of the
main intentions of this album is to get energy up when the songs are performed
live,” says Tati. “The faster pulse
of this album probably reflects my ongoing restlessness. It seems the more I
do, the more I want to do.”
Ionika,
the sophomore Metal Mother album, is
scheduled for release on the artist’s own Post
Primal label on April 16th, 2013. The album’s lead track “Mind_off” and its first official
single “Prism,” are both streaming
now. Taara Tati of Metal Mother is available for
interviews. Contact Josh
Bloom at Fanatic for
more information.
