Naer Mataron is a black metal band from Greece which draws on imagery from Greek mythology. The band was formed in 1994 after splitting from Nar Mataron, and was soon signed to Black Lotus Records, with whom they released four studio albums. Moving through numerous line-ups, the band has seen influences from other genres of music, including a traditional black metal release and songs featuring elements of melodic black metal and industrial music.
In 2007, the band signed with Seasons of Mist, with whom they released their most recent album. The current line-up includes founding member bassist Kaiadas, former DHG vocalist, Vicotnic, and drummer Warhead, said to be the fastest drummer in Europe.
On a chariot with wings I move on and observe
Distant visitors, bright meteorites
Indefinite pleasures, pure tranquility
Blessed with excess, hallowed to create.
Alchemy, ancient knowledge
Magnetized by orbit bewitched by sight.
The bright light blinds my face
Between spaces, discovering unfathomed paths
Astro-Thetis-Cosmos
Around the globe of creation
Lead the source of light, reach the twelfth night.
I am Agkaios who seeks the Knowledge
I know the motion of the stars
I am the one who cuts the yarn
In a season that lavish defines life!
Ouranos, Kronos, Zeus-the Son assassins the Father
...And restores the cosmic order!
Gaia, Rea, Ira- the mother bursts
...And devours the seed of chaos, in lust!
On a chariot with wings, I move on and observe
I stand in time that defines evolution
I blow the circular move of planets.
