Pyramids with Nadja

The result of a match made in heaven. Pyramids with Nadja self titled album is an ambient, droning, delicate, incredible release from 2009, This lengthy just shy an of hour 4 track LP opens with the stunning and gripping "Into the silent waves" it progressed impeccably into the climax of "An angel was heard to cry over the city of rome" a perfect end to the album.

I would hope they would work together again as they blend so effortlessly to retain their individual sounds, yet create something new in the process, Pyramids retain elements of their trademark sounds, namely the double bass drums and echoing vocals. and Nadja retain they're density and impact. Pyramids have collaborate with a who's who of musicians, two of the tracks on this album have been remixed by the legendary Ulver and the dark Lustmord. Pyramids first LP "Pyramids" had also been remixed by black metal outfit, Blut Aus Nord, and post-rock heroes Jesu among others. It also includes appearances from members of emo rocks Mineral, and Simon Raymonde of UK dream pop Cocteua Twins. Safe to say that amongst musicians Hydraheads' Pyramids have caused a very big stir.

Nadja of course, the Canadian drone duo of Aidan Baker and Leah Buckareff. These two are now strangers to praise either. Separately both bands have some great releases, the well known cover LP by Nadja "When I see the sun always shines on TV" and "Touched" among many others. But anyway, enjoy this release, and lets hope for another collabartion and release on vinyl!
