The Review:
'Nothing New - 10 Years Of
Fresh Air Enjoyment', the compilation of songs released
by Black Shape Of Nexus is exactly what the
label would suggest. If you're reading this, chances are you've heard of BSON and are fully aware of what this will bring. What they
bring is pummelling, noisy doom.
The
pun-tastic 'Honuor Found In Delay'
delivers a few moments of calm before the knuckle dragging doom dredges through
the mire while spacey swoops travel between eardrums. The pace picks up and
wanders into High On Fire territory before the cacophony
of feedback at the end. Song length in the BSON camp has always
been a variable affair as the 8 minute sludgathon of 'Always and Only' is followed by Uber Doom track 'VIIIe'. 'Heute Spaß, Morgen Tod' is (from what I can tell) the only song
sung in their mother tongue and a neanderthalic club to the head. By the time
the fifth and final track 'VII'
comes around, you'll have a sore head and neck...and that's set to worsen with
the punchy instrumental that's on offer here.
This
is more of a collector’s item in my opinion. What I hope is that this is just a
sweetener, a little taunt before the crushing blow of another full length is
dished out. A man can hope.
