NU
Event
NU emerges from the clash between rock and the dense industrial universe. Their sound has a rough, mechanical pulse that, combined with literature and poetry, propels a performing and image-creating attitude. They were born in 2016, in Santo Tirso and, after two EP's, 2020 witnesses the release of their debut album, Diferentes Formas da Mesma Areira Morta, wich was recorded live. Guided by passages from writer Thomas Pynchon, the voice that echoes on the three tracks of the album conveys the loss of humanity, technological alienation, fear, loneliness, psychosis and the fierce and widespread competition that boost the atmosphere of decay that hangs over Western civilization. Or, in the words of Pynchon, "a world increasingly on a collision course with the inanimate". The soundscapes arise from the clash between this same world and the ordinary individual, an inner collapse of meaning and a silent invasion of emptiness.
