Description
NOSOUND'S NEW RECORD 'TO THE CORE' PRESENTED ON DIGIPACK CD, INCLUDES 12-PAGE PRINTED BOOKLET - 'To The Core' is a bold, stripped-back return from Nosound -- the acclaimed project led by Italian composer & multi-instrumentalist Giancarlo Erra.

Since forming in 2005, Nosound have built a reputation for emotionally rich, genre-defying music that blends ambient, post-rock & art rock influences. Their work has drawn comparisons to artists like Sigur Ros, Steven Wilson & Brian Eno, & earned a loyal following through albums such as 'Scintilla', 'Afterthoughts' & 'Allow Yourself'.
Following the more electronic & alternative direction of 2018's 'Allow Yourself', 'To The Core' finds Nosound reconnecting with the heart of their earlier works - albums like 'Lightdark' & 'A Sense Of Loss' - while still embracing the focused songwriting & modern sensibility developed on records like 'Scintilla'.
Nosound released their live album 'This Night (Live In Veruno)' in 2022 following several performances at major festivals & a creatively fertile period. Instead of rushing to produce a quick follow-up, Erra let the music of 'To The Core' evolve organically. Free from commercial pressures, the album is shaped by time, intention & instinct.
The record was written & produced entirely by Erra, who returned to organic instrumentation including guitars, real drums, strings, synthesizers & piano, while maintaining the streamlined song structures of more recent releases. As Erra puts it, "I always prefer to play a song again because it was beautiful but too short, rather than wonder why it goes on for so long without saying anything new." 'To The Core' is the band's first new music since 2018 & marks a powerful return to their creative roots.
Presented as a digipack CD, this edition of 'To The Core' includes a 12-page printed booklet with lyrics & original artwork by Louise Pigott.
