Catalog #:
ALIEN 067CD
March 2007 release. "Our second release by the up and coming ambient doom band Nadja. Nadja is made of Aidan Baker and Leah Buckareff. Baker, the project's founder is an insanely prolific musician under his own name under which he releases solo works for such prestigious labels as Germany's Die Stadt, as well countless CD and CD-R releases all over the world. He is also an accomplished poet and visual artist. Buckareff rounds out the band on bass guitar and backing vocals. While credit is owed to likes of such pioneering legends Earth, current king pins SUNN((O))) and Boris for defining the genre, Nadja take more inspiration from artists hailing from the dark ambient and electronica fields. Passages on this latest release can be compared to saturated wall of ambient noise perfected by the likes of Tim Hecker and Fennesz or Justin K. Broadrick's Jesu project. Like the sound of our earlier
Truth Becomes Death
release,
Touched
is ambient music being pushed to its breaking point, yet the overall feel is a slightly more gentle. Parts of the album feature the use of clean undistorted vocals, something rather unique in the genre, hinting at the sounds of such bands as Codeine, Swans or Joe Preston's Thrones project."

Title:
Thaumogenesis
Label:
IMPORTANT RECORDS
Format:
2LP+CD
Price:
$24.00
Catalog #:
IMPREC 273LP
"Limited to 1000 copies. Double LP packaged in a gatefold LP jacket. Designed by Seldon Hunt. Bonus D side of James Plotkin's exclusive 'ThaumoRemix.' and bonus live CD."
"One single 62 minute long track, bass, guitar and drum machine, all woven into a slowly undulating soundscape of blissy drone and monstrous pummel...It's like some Frankensteinian collage of Godflesh, Jesu, Sunn O))) and old Swans. It's heavy and bleak and doomy, but like Jesu, the sound is imbued with a strange warmth, and emotional mystery, that makes this much more than an exercise in guitardrone. And the sound is not static, it wavers and shifts, the melody subtly changing shape, all without the rhythm ever wavering....Like Merzbow filtered through M83 and played by Philip Jeck, a glorious blast of spectral majesty, radiant and absolutely breathtaking."

UR 024CD
"
Trembled
has returned, triumphantly. Released by Utech Records [046] in the summer of 2006 on limited CD-R. The principal live recordings from Toronto have been remixed/remastered and include a rare performance of Swans 'No Cure for the Lonely.' The core of the release, though, is 'Tremble,' a cascading improvisation of drift and atmospherics revealed to audiences on an occasional basis. The track is telling of the fluidity with which Nadja create and why the band has become so highly regarded. 'Breakpoint' and 'Corrasion' complete the set. Exclusive material has been added in 'Stays Demons' and a second version of 'Tremble' recorded by Scott Slimm in Philadelphia. Illustration by Justin Bartlett. The ultimate document of Nadja at their most electric and empyreal. Edition of 900."
