Anju Singh has been the primary figure behind the Vancouver Noise
Festival for the past seven years, the drummer and vocalist in
long-running (and now nearing fully-realized) death metal band AHNA, and
has held countless other roles in the punk, metal, and harsh noise
scenes in Vancouver. THE NAUSEA has existed alongside all of this for
the better part of a decade now. These six violin-based movements
channel GYORGY LIGETI's works popularized in "2001: A Space Odyssey",
and JOHNNY GREENWOOD's contemporary classical score for "There Will Be
Blood", as they both ascend to levels of compositional clarity and
descend into a cavernous, hellish nightmare populated by the harrowing
voices of the dead and the dying. Similarities can be drawn to JASON
LESCALLEET's epic "The Pilgrim" as the crescendo of harsh noise begins
to decay. Death is the ultimate theme at play here. A long-awaited debut
release from a figure instrumental in maintaining Vancouver's integrity
in the harsh noise scene and beyond.
