concept: "Steven Stapleton and Colin Potter's voluntary three-month banishment to the icy realms of Lofoten, Norway has borne fruit in the form of this double album on ICR. As was reported, these two prime movers of experimental sound were sent high above the Arctic Circle May through July of this year, with limited recording equipment and no musical instruments, to record a series of audio responses to their harsh environment, which were then transmitted to the local mariner's radio station at unannounced intervals. Stapleton and Potter have further edited and processed the original broadcasts, ending up with a total of two hours of sound, seven lengthy tracks[...]" ( to read the following ) there are sound samples ... ...the strange thing is that on soulseek there are two different tracklistings circulating, one with seven tracks without real titles but with dates instead ("June 15", "June 17", "July 24"...), that's the one the "official" sources are providing, and one with ten tracks with real names ("Glacial Ecstacy", "Hectic Day", "Cracking Iceberg", "I Can't Speak Norwegian"...) i know that the one with dates is "volume one" so could the second one be volume two? or is it a fake? i can't find any info on it... |

most of nurse with wounds music is challenging ambient/avant-garde/experimental . The only two albums i would recommend to people who dont care for experimental is "Crumbduck" the stereolab collaboration and "Second pirate session" a double cd album with beats the entire time. |

Nurse With Wound = surrealistic dadaist music : ) it's pretty challenging indeed. and can differ highly from release to release; sometimes it's weird collages, sometimes dark ambient, sometimes just weird and hardly describable... i'd recommend "Alice The Goon", among others. |

what are the times of the 10 track version? there was a limited edition with a third disc, which could maybe be it. or they could be recordings someone made of the original radio broadcasts. i think i remember colin potter saying on the brainwashed eye thing saying volume 2 won't be out for a while (since so much stuff has come out lately) so i doubt it's that. i've been speding time with the angry eelectric fingers recently, it feels like your on drugs when you're not - and then some other beast doing something very spectacular although it's hard to say what... how nice: |

no, it's not the third bonus disc, i've checked on the website... the tracklisting of that mysterious version is: disc 1 Glacial Ecstacy - 15:13 Hectic Day - 14:07 Cracking Iceberg - 19:54 I Can't Speak Norwegian - 10:16 Silence - 0:20 disc 2 Hectic Day Remix - 14:12 Cod Conversation - 4:40 Morse Signal - 0:05 Aurora Borealis - 14:48 Movements of Tundra - 15:08 |

uzim, can you recommend any other rythmic or easily digestible Nurse with wound (besides crumbduck and who can i turn to stereo/pirate session) ? my girlfriend is a huge fan of those two albums, and i know there is more out there that i havent heard. |

as i said, Alice The Goon is one of the best, and most accessible as well... first track is very rhythmic and almost danceable, second is half-rhyhtmic half-weird, third is weird dark ambient. Man With The Woman Face is also really good, like surrealistic lullabies for adults. Soliloquy For Lilith and Homotopy To Marie are both great but definitely not rhythmic; the first is six (or eight, for the latest edition) long bizarre drone ambient tracks and the second is five (four long and a short) tracks of gloomy minimalistic collages... some of NWW's "darkest" works. She And Me Fall Together In Free Death and An Awkward Pause are mixed bags, with some great easily accessible ones, some that require more patience, and some average ones... |

in the name of pendanticity -- in case anyone's interested... i found out that the 10 track version is apparently a cdr released before the proper one before the project was fully realised or something. i've heard a small bit of it and it is very similar to the cds, different edits and some other stuff. i also managed to track down a copy of the third disc - i don't see why it wasn't given a wider release - maybe it didn't fit in. but anyway it has seagulls (!). also a great track featuring the almost raw material. and might i add, for rythm Rock n Roll Station is quite a safe bet i think. also a worthy bump for nw. |
