Brazilian Indigenous Folk Metal band Arandu Arakuaa released a music video for Kaburéûasu, a song from their upcoming album.
“Kaburéûasu” means “owl” in the Indigenous Tupi language. The song is a prayer for this spirit animal, sacred not only for Indigenous peoples of South America but also for many other traditional cultures in the world.
Directed by Caio Cortonesi, the video is the second single released so far for Arandu Arakuaa’s upcoming album, whose title and release date have yet to be revealed.
