Description:

Dunedin/ Melbourne duo Ov Pain's (Renee Barrance, Tim Player) sophomore album The Churning Blue of Noon is an arcane and fascinating mosaic of musical styles and tenebrous aesthetics. Delving into deeper and darker places than the frigid coldwave/ post punk of their 2017 debut. The intervening years between the two records have seen the pair take on new instruments and explore new modes of musical expression. The band say they were listening to a lot of vocal-less music, in particular drone and free jazz, and were incorporating more improvisation into their live show and writing process. The result is a record of experimental, psychedelic dark-wave that envelopes the listener in a languid wave of gothic drone. Both Barrance and Player take turns at vocals, and both their vocal styles, though very different, bring to mind incantations. The whole record has a mystical, transcendental quality. Ov Pain weave a soundscape thick and heady, lyrics spelling out a cryptic largely first-person narrative, that plays the dystopic off against the euphoric. This tactic is at play throughout the album both thematically and stylistically. The listening experience is all encompassing and cathartic. The Churning Blue of Noon is a dark and beautiful work, a record to lose yourself in. â?¢ GENRE: ALTERNATIVE, PSYCHEDELIC DARK-WAVE, DRONE, EXPERIMENTAL POST-PUNK, ELECTRONIC, SHOEGAZE, GOTHIC, FREE JAZZ â?¢ FÃ¼r Fans von: Coil, Current 93, This Heat, Death In June, My Bloody Valentine, Cut Hands, Peter BrÃ¶tzmann, Sunn 0))), Scott Walker, Cyclobe, Bohren & Der Club of Gore, Earth -
