NAAM: 'Skyling Slip' Video Released

January 15, 2010

"Skyling Slip", the new video from Brooklyn, New York metal band NAAM, can be viewed below. The clip, which was filmed on location in Brooklyn with director Rachelle Rahme, "tailgates the band 'day-in-the-life' style as they 'prepare' for an evening gig," according to a press release.

"Skyling Slip" comes off NAAM's self-titled debut album, which was released on October 20, 2009 via Tee Pee Records. The follow-up to the group's three-song mega-EP "Kingdom" was recorded on an abandoned dairy farm in New York's Catskill Mountains and delivers "pitch-dark, utterly hypnotic songs that resurrect the concept of space-rock for a new era," according to a press release. "NAAM's raw, feedback-powered sound pools densely distorted riff-o-rama with throbbing bass lines and echoey, buzzy vocals that seem to hang in the open spaces in between.

"The music of NAAM conjures both post-apocalyptic dazzle and unsettling feeling via punishing, deeply penetrating repetition and twisted vapor trails of guitar. NAAM pounds giant riffs into submission resulting in downered sub-blues melancholia that sounds like the soundtrack to a missing hallucination scene from 'Easy Rider'. NAAM's high-voltage power and addictive sonance has found favor with both metalheads and psychedelic rock fans alike, all of whom have talked up the group's thundering musical muscle."

The CD's primo cover art — created by artist Ryan Hamilton — can be seen below.

NAAM features Ryan Lugar (guitars, vocals),John Bundy (bass, vocals) and Eli Pizzuto (drums, percussion).
