Nadja - Truth Becomes Death 2xlp

The Nadja - Truth Becomes Death 2xlp is now available.

The recording opens with “Bug/Golem”, an epic track weighing in at a walloping 23 minutes. The piece opens slowly, building from a distant drone that matures into riffing and sparse percussion and then escalates into a murky wall of sound. At the halfway point the track changes dramatically, utilizing heavy guitar riffs alongside buried layers of vocals that combine with eerie melodies before finally trailing off with a whisper. The second composition, “Memory Leak,” erupts with a colossal blast of doom metal and advances at a menacing, sloth-like pace, making it reminiscent of a more plodding Isis or a cross between Earth and Rafael Toral. In its last quarter the track shifts into an opaque soundscape of drones and remote noises. The closer “Breakpoint”, commences with a thick fog of cacophony and then assumes a more subdued tone, employing serene vocals in a style that brings to mind The For Carnation. The final and most tranquil section of the record makes use of ghostly murmuring that brings “Truth Beomes Death” to a graceful yet ominous conclusion.’ – Alien 8 Recordings -

We'll try to contact veryone who ordered extra stuff with his Nadja pack over the next couple of days, but please understand this is quite a job so it will take a while.

TRANSITIONAL 'Nothing Real Nothing Absent' CD - May 27



Transitional is the new project of musician producer Kevin Laska (Novatron) and long time Justin K Broadrick and Kevin Martin collaborator Dave Cochrane (Jesu, Grey Machine,…). The debut 'Nothing Real Nothing Absent' offers a rich variety in their approach to sound combining crushing atmospheres through a mixture of electronic ambience, mangling bass lines and distorted epic layers of textured guitar.

Transitional; a solid, textured and dynamic sonic journey through a world that is both self deprecating and enlightening, but either way leaves you wanting more.

Nadja 3x 2xlp Pack info

We decided to offer these 3 beautiful releases as one pack, at the reduced price of 40 euro - these packs can be pre-ordered as soon as the Touched 2xLP goes online (April 22), and they will ship on the release date of the last release of the series ('Truth Becomes Death' 2xLP) on June 23.
There are 100 coloured vinyl packs available for the first orders, the rest will be available seperatly. As soon as you’ve ordered your pack your copy of the records has been reserved. We’ll send you a mail with the payment information as soon as Truth Becomes Death becomes available. Please note that the coloured lp pack is limited to 1 per customer.

Unfortunatly the shipping costs for packages shipped outside of Europe and the USA are extremely high and it’s actually cheaper to order the three records seperately, however if you’d like to order other records besides the Nadja pack the combined shipping can still be the better option (weight of the Nadja pack is 2.2 kg, you can add records up to 5 kg).

If you don't want to miss out, make sure to wishlist the packs here for coloured, here for black immediately, so you'll be the first to get a notification when these are available for pre-order.
