Comprised of guitarist Tom Brooke and drummer Tuomas Kainulainen, NYOS are known for their immersive and often physically demanding live shows, having toured intensely throughout their first decade of existence, including tours supporting Zeal & Ardor, Esben and the Witch and The Comet Is Coming as well as appearances at festivals such as Sideways Festival in Helsinki, Fekete Zaj in Hungary and Pelagic Fest in Netherlands. The duo create massive sonic worlds using Brooke’s labyrinthine loops and atmospheric layering alongside Kainulainen’s kinetic drumming, in music that is rhythmic, raw, and eclectic.Since their formation in 2014, NYOS have carved out a distinctive place within Europe’s experimental and post-rock scenes, characterised by their relentless energy, polyrhythmic complexity, and hypnotic layering.
While still rooted in their signature loop-based approach, Growl is “more ambitious with song soundscapes and compositions”, says guitarist Tom Brooke, naturally embracing a denser, more textured sound with greater attention to atmosphere and tension.
Laudare steht für Poesie - in Wort und Komposition. Irgendwo zwischen Post- und Progressive-Rock, Metal, Neo-Klassik und Folk sucht sich das Quartett aus drei Stimmen, Gitarre, Bass, Schlagzeug und Cello ganz eigene Wege abseits ausgetretener Pfade. Da schmiegt sich Melodie um Melodie aneinander, aufeinander, ineinander. Mal zart und zerbrechlich dahin gehaucht, dann wieder ausladend und kraftvoll und stets mit jener bittersüßen Schwermut im Herzen, die ebenso tief berührt, wie schmerzt und uns so unsere lichtesten und dunkelsten Seiten zugleich fühlen lässt.
Ophelia Sullivan (they/them) is a composer, music producer, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist currently based in Leipzig, Germany. Previously known for their work in electronic and experimental music (SEE ECSTASPHERE AND APHEXIA) as well as having been a live vocalist for GERMAN Progressive Metal band Soulsplitter, Ophelia's new solo project is located at the intersection of electronic music, band music and orchestral music.
Its stylistic components include but are not limited to Post-Progressive, Avant-Pop, Trip Hop, Electronica and Post-Rock.
Ophelia's music is never confined to a single genre - the central idea is juxtaposing and merging supposedly unrelated styles.
