Release Notes:
--------------
The end result of a post-gig improvisational get together last Summer,
Kristoffer Nystroms Orkester (KNO) is a collaborative project between
Peter Nystrom (Megaptera/Negru Voda) and Kristoffer Oustad (V:28).
Being fans of improvised analog music, they programmed the drummachine,
added analog synthsounds and processed guitar sounds to the rhythms and
let it rip, doing very little overdubs. Having liked what they heard in
the intitial sessions, the decision was made to continue the project,
resulting in the 4 tracks found here on Brakehead. A true sonic beat
down, done in full Scandinavian style, with a battery of iron fisted
rhythms hammering down in a thunderous downpour, and the caustic
reverberations of the analog doom machine grinding and screeching in a
symphony of clangorous and distressed beauty. This is an album that is
as majestic as it is bleak, capturing the essence of old school Swedish
industrial, but forging a new path towards a dark future.From
auralpressure.com "Brakehead" is a phenomenally majestic piece of dark
ambience and noise that will leave you totally awe struck. The visceral
raw power of the electronics is a thing of untamed beauty that heralds
in a new era by which others must now be judged against.
