Comments vocalist Nina Saeidi:
"In the Persian book of Kings Mazandaran is a mythical realm populated by djinn, sorcerers and beautiful women who basked in riches. This realm of godless and invincible demons is referenced by even more ancient texts such as the Avesta, but it is in the Shahnameh that a King named Kay Kavus succumbs to greed and ill considered conquest to try and seize the wealth of Mazandaran."Najang Bah Divhayeh Mazandaran" is the warning that Kay Kavus receives before he sets off on his disastrous journey. It means:Do Not Go To War With The Demons Of MazandaranThis single from the upcoming album references some of the details of this storied chapter of the Shahnameh, but with the classic sci-fi and poetic twist that Lowen bring with their progressive fusion of doom metal and Iranian music."
