 The infamous Nurse With Wound list that accompanied their debut and slightly extended on their second. Chock full of impossibly rare underground Krautrock and Zeuhl and progressive rock and general uncategorisable madness. Feel free to talk about any revelations or disappointments and, of course, let's talk about Nurse With Wound.
And as Steve Stapleton is fond of quoting:
"You don't have to call it music if the term shocks you" (John Cage)

Interesting project. I only have From the Quiet Men from a Tiny Girl, and do have a tendency to want to fast-forward through the thing. I have caught a few musical references, and that's the fun part of listening to it. Have more fun with it treating at it as as an audio puzzle than music for music-sake, y'know? Yeah. Interesting experiment. Should get the first, really. Haven't given it much of a chance, yet.

Withhout really being a collecor I have 151 bands/artists from that
list. I found Capsium Red, Siloah, Zweistein, Nosferatu, Mahogany
Brain, Gomorra and Eiliff to be pretty ordinary or forgettable.
But the rest has been either fantastic (Igor Wakhewitch, Archaïa, Lemon Kittens, Jacques Thollot mm...) or interesting (Horde, Colette Magny, Fille Qui Mousse mm....) A sensational and very exiting list, sort of. Only heard the band NWW's debut, and bits and pieces from other albums. My greatest NWW list find is probably Igor Wakhevitch.  In every way my biggest idol along with Christian Vander. |

They seem interesting, I'm only familiar with the list and not the music of the group, but they certainly have a killer name, and some nice art work.

I have a CDr somewhere with a large amount of their works (thank you blogs once again), I will have to dig it up again sometime. The only work I find myself versed with is "Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella" (it wouldn't be a NNW thread without seeing that name a few times), brilliant experimentations, dark , creepy, essential for lovers of their music.
Might I say, one of the unknown finds on the list I was wrapped with: Mama Béa Tekielski - la folle  p.s. if any one has Urban Sax - Urban Sax II I would be more than interested to hear it ;) |

They have a very varied output, and the first 3 or 4 albums are rather different to the later works featuring long term collabs David Tibet and Colin Potter. Some of their work verges on ambient, albeit with a dark undertone - Soliloquy For Lilith and Echo Poeme spring to mind, and there's also the remarkable Shipwreck Radio project where they spent a few months in the far north of Norway, making environmental recordings which they then treated and broadcast on the local community's radio station.
There's a good compilation called In Living Fear of James Last (or something like that) which focuses on their more avant-rock style excursions.

I have the album Angry Electric Fingers which is more of a collaboration from other artists with NWW (irr. app. (ext.), Jim O'Rourke are some of the artists collaborating on the release)
It's my first true industrial album and it was a great experience. Edited by chamberry - August 23 2007 at 18:06 |

Agree totally with Gomorrha. Got it recommended by the geezers at Ultima Thule but it was a thorough let-down bar one track.
Surprised you didn't like Eiliff (as we have almost identical tastes)! I'm listening to their 1st now and this kind of Jazz-Kraut just makes me so happy! Looking to score their ouvre on vinyl (without paying silly money. Impossible task maybe).
The biggest treat for me was Banten (thank you times a million Black Velvet). An absolutely stunning Dutch rarity.
Oh, and if anyone wants to hear impossibly amazing sounds by a commited non-musician then look no furthur than NWW's 'Merzbild Schwet'. You owe it to yourself to hear this horrifying masterpiece.

I've know I've changed my mind on a lot of bands before. Sometimes a band is just introduced to me at the wrong time. I'm Trying Eiliff (Girlrs) some more right now. Better than I remembered i guess. Now its your turn to put on some Mythos. |

I went through a total AMM/MEV phase a while back, I find that kind of music really clears my head!
The only album I've bought because of the list is Debon by Brast Burn. It reminds me of folky, laid back and stripped down early Amon Duul or Amon Duul II chanting plus a primitive Maggot Brain-esque guitar solo and occasional random noises. Great!

I'll keep an eye out for them but don't think I'll be lucky!
Back to NWW: I love Soliloquy for Lilith coz I'm a sucker for drones.
As for the other NWW albums I've heard (Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella and another couple of albums whose names I can't remember), it may be that I first heard of NWW 25 years ago or so but didn't actually hear them until last year, so I'd built up a mental picture of what I thought they'd sound like and... they weren't as weird and way out as I thought they'd be! (Apologies for the ridiculous length of that sentence!)  Edited by A B Negative - September 04 2007 at 06:04 |

Indeed! The Brast Burn album is great but that one's my fave. A fivestar gem. Its from '76 I think, but sounds like blues from the future. |

I thought Debon by Brast Burn was rubbish, personally.
I've discovered quite a few gems from the NWW list though. I still haven't heard an NWW album though. |
