NIBIRU “Netrayoni” /2CD/

Second full-length album by the Italian Psychedelic Ritual Sludge/Drone/Doom Metal band.
Almost a year after releasing debut album, Italian Psych Sludge Metallers are back to inflict more sonic devastation upon to the world. They have just released a truly stunning two-part album that runs for a mind-expanding 95 minutes or so.
If you are a fan of their debut album then you are in for a wild ride as Nibiru are back stronger and stronger than ever before. Nibiru have further enhanced their self-proclaimed Tribal Psychedelic Sludge experience. Imagine Bong jamming with Ufomammut and that is only a glimpse of what to expect on this psychedelic journey into the unknown.
Nibiru have embraced the Drone side of their music unlike ever before as it violently clashes with the warped out vibes of their Doom/Sludge Metal riffs they brought to the world less than a year ago. The first CD of the two is probably the most drone based with plenty of twists and turns to keep you in a trance throughout. Nibiru add distorted voices that echo from a distant world or dimension with the heavy and slow pounding Sludge Metal riffs trying to confuse you at every turn.
"Netrayoni" is an unconventional album, as it has no set narrative or structure to fall back on. This is Nibiru doing what Nibiru does so well. Playing music that only they can truly understand as this album will frustrate, confuse, delight and thrill you all in equal measure. Nibiru leave no stone unturned as they blaze through 95 minutes of immense Psych/Drone based Doom/Sludge Metal music that comes from a long lost world. It may have some recognizable speeches and noises throughout the epic running time but this album will leave you emotionally drained at times. As the band lay on epic riffs that, have the power to last for days.
"Netrayoni" is a deeply moving and involving album that becomes a better experience the more times you listen to it. Therefore, you may need a few listens before getting the full effect. As you are going to miss a whole load of noises and riffs as Nibiru have a lot going on at times. This is a very-multi layered album.
The 2nd part of the album feels more of a spiritual successor to their debut album as it features the same sort of music. It is a lot straighter forward compared to Part 1 but do not think the guys lay off the crazy psych sonic riffs they played earlier as they do not. Part 2 is just as imaginative though the band combining the two worlds from "Netrayoni" and "Caosgon" for one wild unpredictable ride.
"Netrayoni" is a surreal psychedelic nightmare come to life. It embraces the crazier side of music with more riffs you could possibly imagine. It is a truly stunning work of art though it may divide opinions within the Doom/Sludge Metal community as it you need to give this album your full attention. Even if you lose one second of concentration you may have a different experience altogether than the one you should be expecting.
"Netrayoni" is one of the most creative albums in a very long time. Nibiru are one of the new breed of Italian Sludge Metal bands, as "Netrayoni" is a brilliant and uncompromising album from a truly talented band that can only become better!
Excellent and Highly Recommended!!
