NAQOY share single ‘Art Brut’
"Expect a nightmarish psych trip to David Lynch's dark side of his moon. With Sonic Youth distortion and razzle-dazzle electricity."
Turn Up The Volume
"Successful combination of lo-fi drums, high-frequency guitar noises and beautiful melodic bass lines. Krautrock machine against the rules, why is it beautiful? Perhaps for many this record will sound like a demo, but often a demo sounds much better than studio albums!"
Noise Me!
"...On Four, NAQOY offer up four tracks of trippy/minimalist instrumental post punk, noise rock, electronic, drone music. Overall, Four makes for an awesome listen and is definitely worth checking out. Great stuff! Enjoy!"
Dead Air At The Pulpit
NAQOY is a two piece noise-rock/post-punk/electronic /drone band based in Budapest.
Art Brut is the third instalment of the imagined Triptych of releases (being ’Into the Fog’ and ’four’ the first two) and another journey of musical discoveries for NAQOY.
This is the imprint of the processing of our last years, which has been emotionally and physically highly turbulent and grueling with a lot of self-doubt, discouragements, depression, burnout and forgiveness...
It is also a meditation about art and self-expression and an attempt to signal consolation to some of those (not just artists), who feel they are somehow stuck outside of an establishment.
The songs are reflections of the stages of a path from being unaware and skeptical of your own abilities (Maze) to accepting the journey to the totality to your own self (Leaves always fall in silence).
If you can understand or have experienced these feelings before, you will understand what is behind the tracks of Art Brut and why we have chosen to put them in this form as you hear them...
