NADJA
LUMINOUS ROT (SOUTHERN LORD)
Nadja is a duo of multi-instrumentalist Aidan Baker and bassist Leah Buckareff-active since 2005-and making music which can be described as ambient doom, dreamsludge, or metalgaze.
Nadja's signature sound combines the atmospheric textures of shoegaze and ambient/electronic music with the heaviness, density, and volume of metal, noise, and industrial.
For their new album, Luminous Rot, the duo retain their overblown/ambient sound, and explore shorter and more tightly structured songs reflecting their interests not only in metal, but post-punk, cold-wave, shoegaze, and industrial.
