Title: Nic
Label: Malicious Damage
Product Type: VINYL LP

Vinyl LP pressing of this 2007 release, a ravishing album of laid-back and funkadelic tunes from this outfit featuring former PiL guitarist Keith Levene. Based in Oslo, NIC is a fearless band of experienced sonic explorers bound together by a common thirst for musical challenge and diversity. This is a multi-faceted sound, without boundaries, that takes it's influences from Punk, Jazz, Reggae, Soul, Dub and Electronica. A few years back, drummer Ted Parsons [Swans, Prong, Jesu, Killing Joke] spent some time hanging out in London with Levene, jamming, chewing the fat, having a few beers and making plans to record together. Eventually, a few years later, Keith found himself in Oslo's Mok Studios alongside Ted and the rest of the NIC crew - keyboard wizard Markus O Klyve, Texan guitarist and vocalist Chuck Frazier, bassist Matti Hansen, audio/dub scientist Fredrik (Kjeks) Kjelman, producer Scotty Hard and an elastic bag full of flexible ideas. Malicious Damage.
