Flying Nun
SUBLIMINALS - United State LP
20 year anniversary edition.
Highly recommended.
One of the great, unheralded Kiwi releases.
The band amalgamated the “Flying Nun sound” with a Krautrock inspired, futurist ‘less-is-more’ aesthetic — making new of the old.
"Comprising former members of Loves Ugly Children, The Hasselhoff Experiment, Bressa Creeting Cake and others, with strong ties to underground music scenes in Dunedin, Christchurch and Auckland, The Subliminals’ first and only LP is a pearler. As befits a band named The Subliminals, it’s an album full of concealed messages, arcane resonances, half-remembered emotional references. Turn it up loud and it will bypass the usual filters and speak directly to your subconscious."
