Maruta (1945) refers to a codename associated with a clandestine initiative during World War II, wherein the Imperial Japanese Army conducted inhumane scientific experiments on human subjects. In contrast, Maruta (2008) represents a trio of individuals from Miami who are determined to deliver an intense musical experience. Their debut album, "In Narcosis", showcases a gritty sound infused with unexpected grooves and infectious rhythms, complemented by powerful and precise drumming that evokes the prowess of a robotic drummer. This album marks a formidable beginning for this emerging band.
