Nukli
(orange/green) There Is Another Way (2lp)
The band Nukli from the UK were founded in the late '80s and released several cassette releases and only one official CD, 'Time Factory', back in 1997. While the band have been playing live all these years and released a few live recordings this is the first studio album since 1997 and the band's first ever vinyl release. The songs on this album were recorded at the Foel Studio in Wales back in 2012, so they took their time to get this finished and released but it was worth the wait! This LP features 12 mostly long tracks with a really great positive message. They also mix in some interesting samples between tracks. Overall, the tracks just flow like good aged wine, with some nice solid bass and drum grooves over which Kev Hegan plays some fantastic and cool guitar with a nice use of effects pedals at times. He also plays some keys on a few tracks and they mix in some spacey sounds here and there as well. 'Foel Funk' is a bonus track only on the vinyl, not on the CD or Bandcamp! Limited to 200 copies on orange (Side A & B) and light green (Side C & D) vinyl.
