*Side Effects May Include: MILD TO MODERATE DEATH* Very good experimental stuff from Beijing. From super mellow to super heavy sh*t. Great female vocalist too! Cover reminds me of Eyes Wide Shut. Favorite track: Carnival Urge.

about

'Nekroma' started out as a collaboration with Beijing based prog metal outfit Nakoma before eventually morphing into something distinct. Dark and brooding, loud and doomy, yet too odd to classed as a straight up metal band, Nekroma takes you on journey through strange and haunting dreamscapes. By eschewing guitar based compositions Nekroma instead relies on the Diddly Board (King Necro's signature instrument of a one stringed skateboard guitar), electric bass, and Gameboy loops to provide the melody of the songs, over which soaring vocals juxtapose with guttural growls, while drums blast away in the background. Recorded between China and England and mixed and mastered by Li Shenjie in Beijing, Nekroma represents a new direction in the world of GUIGUISUISUI, a dark turn for troubled times in our corner of infinity.

As an added bonus the digital version includes remixes of three of the tracks by Kai Luen (aka. Soulspeak), EMERGE, and 4 Channels Club.


Originally released June 7, 2017


All songs written by King Necro, Lady Pumpkin, Nico Mazzei, and Linda Westman.

Recorded at Fuda (Beijing, China) and Golddust Studios (Bromley, England).
Mixed and mastered by Shen at Ran Music (Beijing, China).
