Icelandic doom metal, drone rock and progressive rock act NYIÞ sees first four releases from 2011 to 2019 united on one album

The Icelandic doom metal, drone rock and progressive rock act NYIÞ sees its first four releases from 2011 to 2019 united on one 2CD album, “᛬ᚢᛁᛋᚿᛁ•ᚼᛆᛏᛁ•ᚼᚱᛅ᛬”, on the fine French label Cyclic Law.

NYIÞ’s (pronounced Neeth) first four releases from 2011 to 2019 consisted of a trilogy of tapes and material from a split album.

The tape trilogy consisted of these 3 tapes:

• “Til eru hræ sem hafa aldrei verið menn og munu aldrei verða þó þau lifi enn” (2011)
• “Hati þá guð og helgir englar allir” (2012)
• “Visni þitt hold svo betur megi hæfa þeim hug sem það hýsir” (2014)

“Caput Mortum” (2018), the final release represented in this anthology, breaks thematically with the preceding tape trilogy devoid of lyrical content.

The album comes in an edition of just 300 copies in an 8-panel digisleeve with matt lamination.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
