Nü Sensae, Spreading their voodoo through North America

So in my constant stalking of NASA Space Universe, I saw Nü Sensae at the smell, and i was just like "SHIT, things just got real!...again." Nü Sensae and NSU are pretty much my favorite active bands that aren't the Melvins. and after seeing them three more times and talking with the band, i asked if i could do a review, and they were cool with it.so for the three(maybe I'm overestimating?) that will read this, I'm proud to present my "Band Approved" review for NÜ Sensae's ”TV, Death and the Devil”!

NÜ SENSAE
”TV, Death and the Devil LP”
NOMI013

Big Business, Lightning Bolt, Om, godheadSilo, Ruins, probably many others, anyway Nü Sensae, should be added to that list of badass drum and bass duo’s. Nü Sensae is one of those crazy cool bands coming out of Vancouver’s punk/noise/mutant scene. DIY or die, and other stuff, I don’t know, I mean that’s Nardwuar’s jurisdiction. Bass and vox are done by Andrea Lukić, while the drumming is pummeled out by Daniel Pitout

This record is some flawless sludge punk, stuff, with that weird disembodied voice feeling. Although the best part them is that they are actually competent riff writers and capable of being really fucking good, a rarity it seems. The drums are so precise, and skull crushing and that bass is feral and catchy as hell. They call it “Voodoo Punk” mainly because live and successfully on the record they’ve got eeriness shoved in through some haunting screams, shrieks, and singing from Andrea, and Daniel’s tribal death drumming, all this makes dark, Gloom, doom punk galore. They are just so perfectly unstoppable, the records is a tumbling boulder that ends up hitting a bus of children, and that just rolls of into the La Brea Tar-pits, the kids shriek knowing their inevitable doom, just mammoth fuzz, and impending death drumming of the kids banging on the windows, yeah that’s what Nü Sensae is, but in the best way possible.

I'm not sure if this could count as their debut LP, but hell it really doesn’t matter, this has easily been the record of the year for me, from start to finish there is no low point, just segues into more punk doom,

Nü Sensae is almost done with their death defying two-month (or longer) tour of the U.S. along with Shearing Pinx. Seriously the dynamics, the DYNAMICS! I mean that enough is reason to catch them while you can. This band will make you feel like the end of the fucking world is coming, shit rumbles, crashes occur, and that rumbling just keeps going, and then after a bunch of other biblical crap, it ends, like nothing ever happened, but who knows could just be a bad acid trip.

The record can be bought through nominal with their also great single and first one-sided LP. Really buy this record, and make Nardwuar proud.
