Naevus - The Body Speaks

Review by William Saborio

The album "The Body Speaks" by Naevus is a hauntingly beautiful collection of songs that showcases the band's unique sound and style. With its mix of dark, brooding melodies and introspective lyrics, this album is a must-listen for fans of experimental rock music.

From the opening track "The Body Speaks" to the closing song "The Unseen," each track on this album is a masterpiece in its own right. The band's use of unconventional instruments and atmospheric soundscapes creates a sense of tension and unease that is both captivating and mesmerizing.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Glass," which features a haunting vocal performance by lead singer Lloyd James. The song's eerie melody and sparse instrumentation make it one of the most memorable tracks on the album.

About Naevus

Naevus is a British experimental rock group. Formed in London in 1998 by Lloyd James (vocals, acoustic guitar) and Joanne Owen (bass, accordion), Naevus were often categorised as part of the neo-folk genre. Their music has also drawn comparison with acts such as Swans and Wire, and often includes elements of industrial music. The band released four albums between 1999 and 2004 before expanding to a four-piece with the addition of John Murphy (drums) and Greg Ferrari (electric guitar). Their first album with the expanded line-up was Silent Life, which was a critical success, and included contributions from members of Urge Within, Sieben, and Current 93. Their sixth album Relatively Close To The Sea saw them combining elements of their earlier post-punk sounds alongside more melodic material and progressive rock elements. In 2009, Hunter Barr returned as drummer, having previously played on EP The Body Speaks in 2004, and the EP Days that Go followed in 2010. The seventh Naevus album, The Division of Labour, was completed by Lloyd James as a solo effort and was released in May 2012. In 2013, the compilation CDs Stations and Others were released, gathering together all singles, B-sides and compilation tracks from 2001 to 2012 as well as new and previously unreleased material. The EP Backsaddling was released in 2014. The eighth Naevus studio album, Curses, was released in 2018.
