🎤 Artist: Nott
For this next instalment of Discog Dissection, the focus today is on Seattle, Washington duo Nott. Ostensibly, the act seem to begin as the creative endeavour of founder, principal songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Tyler Campbell.
Now on their third full-length, they developed into a fully-fledged live act and, judging by the clips I have seen online, the addition of drummer Julia Geaman was an absolute masterstroke. Released on 4 September 2026 via our friends at Silent Pendulum Records, As All Is Undone is easily their strongest album to date, at least from my perspective. Following multiple listens, I decided to dive into their back catalogue to get a sense of their beginnings, how their sound may have changed over time, and how they developed into the juggernaut they have become today.
According to their bio, Nott occupy a brutal space where dissonant death metal, doom and sludge collide. That description feels particularly appropriate given the sheer weight of their music. There is an oppressive quality to their sound, but also enough variation in dynamics and atmosphere to make the experience feel like far more than simply an exercise in heaviness.
What I particularly enjoyed about this deep dive was hearing that sound develop across three successive records. The foundations are there on The Wretched Sounds, they become increasingly established on Hiraeth, and then, for me, everything comes together on As All Is Undone.
Going backwards through the catalogue also gave me a better appreciation of where Nott started and the progression that followed. Whilst all three albums clearly belong to the same creative vision, As All Is Undone feels like the most complete representation of what Nott have developed into.
Ultimately, that is exactly why I enjoy doing these Discog Dissection features. The ranking is obviously part of it, but it is equally about exploring the journey between records and hearing how an artist's identity develops over time. In Nott's case, As All Is Undone initially caught my attention, but exploring the records that preceded it gave me a much greater appreciation of the project as a whole.
Honestly, Nott have made a considerable impression on me during this deep dive. As All Is Undone remains comfortably my favourite of the three, but each record contributes something to the story of how they arrived at this point. If you haven't already heard them, I would absolutely recommend checking them out.
