Is anyone here into Nurse with Wound? I am thinking of getting some of his music, what releases do you suggest getting first? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I kinda dig Nurse with Wound. Coil, I think, is a lot better, more organized stuff. I'd definitely suggest getting into Coil instead. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like some of the coil tracks i've heard, though i can't seem to find their stuff in the uk! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But I have loads of Coil allready, it's time for something different. I still love Coil though(and Current 93, etc...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pantalaimon, it's almost impossible to find any Coil releases that aren't really expensive. My advice is just download--they're essentially defunct anyway and so much is out of print. I've found the rereleases of stuff for about $22--e-gad! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you like Coil, then NWW will probably appeal to you, too! |
||||||||
|

Nature And Organisation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I would reccomend 'Soliloquy for Lilith', 'Spiral Insana', 'Sugar Fish Drink', and 'Acts of Sensless Beauty' in that order. I should be receiving 'Man with the Woman Face' any day now... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Recommend? What songs have you heard of his that you like? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know him from his work with Current '93. One track I liked in particular was "I have a special plan for this world" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

That's a truly great literary work. I've never read anything more terrifying my whole life! Thomas Ligotti's writing style, in my opinion, far transcends the often associated Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and Machen.. Have you heard 'The Degenerate Little Town' yet? It was just rereleased in digipack format with a booklet containing all of the accompanying text(I don't know how big of a Current 93 fan you are, you may already be well aware of this). I'm actually not sure if Nurse With Wound had all that much influence on 'I Have a Special Plan..". I think the musical ambience probably owed more of it's sound to Christoph Heeman( HNAS, Mirror, etc.)who was also involved in that record. Steven Stapleton's(NWW)surrealist signature is much more apparent on C93 albums such as 'Bright Yellow Moon' or 'Octopus'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Christopher Heeman is also responsible for the swirling dirge-like opening of the original version of 'A Gothic Love Song' and the dismal sound arrangements on 'Chewing on Shadows', the last song on Soft Black Stars. He also appears quite a bit on An Introduction to Suffering(the album with the prancing deer on the cover) -Both which are two of Current 93's finest records in my opinion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
-Anyway, I think you'd really like Nurse With Wound's 'Soliloquy for Lilith', one of the strangest and most unsettling things I've ever heard... I suppose you could make a comparison to Coil's 'Time Machines' though the only similarity they really share is that they both consist of long drawn-out compositions that are made up of several shifting sounds. 'Sililiquoy..' is much more weird and mysterious.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thanks for the information and suggestions Cabbog. I've heard "The Degenerate little town" on the radio in a spoken word version by Thomas Ligotti himself. It was probably an ultra rare recording... Anyway, I will take your advice and look for 'Soliloquy for Lilith'. |
||||||||
|

|
What are some of your favorite Coil albums? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm a huge fan of coil and legendary pink dots, I haven't heard much NWW yet. I'd like to. Stapleton did produce a couple of great albums for LPD, "Malachai" and "Asylum" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Too much to list really Horse Rotorvator(best), Scatology, Gold is the Metal, Stolen and Contaminated Songs, Astral Disaster, Musick to play in the dark 1/2... and of course the solstice/equinox series. The track "Broken Aura" is great too. More, more, more :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, I finally received 'Man with the Woman Face'. It's a really great record.. Probably my favorite. He takes things in completely new direction(think 'Nitpick' off of the Seven Seals compilation). I would recommend it to anyone on this board with even a mild interest in Nurse with Wound. |

D. Tibet rules. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree, let's hope he'll stay alive for a long time. He almost died twice now :( And Cabbog: thanks for your suggestion. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If you haven't ordered any of his albums yet I'd recommend picking up 'Man with the Woman Face' first. I think you'd really like it Laserbeak. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, and not soon after Tibet was out of the hospital, Stephen Thrower also suffered from a burst appendix and John Balance had a suspected heart attack.. Poor boys! They need to take it easy.. What are some of your favorite Current 93 records? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey Laserbeak, did you ever get ahold of 'Soliliquy for Lilith'? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chance meeting on a dissecting live at bar maldoror second pirate session spiral insania thunder perfect mind are what i hve-dont listen to them that much |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey cabbog i can't find any cylobe mp3's anywhere on soulseek! how am i supposed to get into them if i can't hear any of their music? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmm.. Try downloading several samples at their website: http://www.brainwashed.com/cyclobe -I'd send some to you myself but I'm running on a 33.6 modem. |
||||||||
|

nww, coil and current 93 is all too rare and expensive, I hate it. however, Man with the woman face and Large ladies with cake in the oven are incredible! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
try Man With The Woman Face... it's short, but gorgeous. (i only have this one and An Awkward Pause for now, NWW releases are hard to get) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the new one is pretty good too... i personally prefer acts of senseless beauty over all of them though. not too into the earlier stuff, except maybe sylvie and babs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i suggest: Man With Woman Face, or, Thunder Perfect Mind. |
||||||||
|
|

Go.....to....strangefortune.com *dies |

|
|

||||||||
|
|

|
|
anyone heard or have the new nurse with wound disc? check out brainwashed.com/nww for info on it, it came out this year. I have yet to hear it but hopefully itll be one of my next purchases along with 26 mixes, molasses, set fire to flames, el guapo and frankie sparo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whoops, didnt see that you talked about it already. good to hear its a nice release, I hadnt heard anything about it (such as reviews etc.) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Are you talking about 'Salt Marie Celeste' or 'Man with the Woman Face'? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well obviuosly im talking about salt marie celeste since it came out this year and since i already have man with the woman face :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was confused. I have 'Music from the Horse Hospital' and Nurse With Wound's 'Salt' song is alright - It's a bit minimal and blurry... salty. Salt Marie Celeste IS derived from it, though the concept is supposedly much more fleshed out. I can't really comment as I haven't heard it yet. Jon Whitney reviewed it in The Brain two weeks ago though in case you weren't aware. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's good... it IS kinda hollow sounding and airy.. very dry and tempstuous... i liked it quite a bit... im curious to hear man with the woman face... |
