Started in 2010 in Nashville, Tennesse, YAUTJA has strived to create unique songs that are both aggressive and dissonant while still maintaining elements of more traditional musicality. They have done several North American tours over the past 8 years as well as releasing a handful of splits and demos, 1 full length LP, and two 12” EPs. “Songs of Lament” is the second release from the band through FORCEFIELD RECORDS; an “EP” that is actually more of a full length release.
