Info for This Night (Live in Veruno)

Nosound is back with a new live album: This Night (Live in Veruno)! Recorded at Veruno Festival on the 5th September 2021. After the World has stopped for almost two years, and most bands were forced to halt gigs in front of a live audience, we were called by organisers of Veruno Festival to play in Northern Italy and mark this way our return on stage.

Although in the middle of writing and recording the new studio album, we felt we left an unfinished job when we did our last gigs in 2019 in Italy opening for our friends and labelmates Anathema. So we accepted the invitation and prepared almost the same setlist, presenting a variety of tracks from our last studio album and spanning back through our discography.

Getting back on stage, with real people, with real decibels and the excitement of the live event, was a return to normal life and a more than ever thrilling experience. Little we knew, if not just before the show, that the whole thing was going to be recorded on multitrack! It felt just a perfect combination, a way to celebrate our return to the stage, and a way to show on a record what the band is today, six years after our last official live recording, Teide 2390.

Despite some technical problems that caused the loss of part of the show recordings, these seven tracks remained and they're presented here as we played them, without overdubs of any sort. The actual lineup is now a well-tested one for a few years, the one that's going to be on the new studio album. And one that helped render the songs on stage in a much more dynamic, sometimes quite different way.

Nosound
Regarded by critics and fans alike as one of the most interesting up and coming alt/art rock bands in Europe, Nosound inventively combines influences from '70s psychedelia, '80s/'90s ambient and contemporary alternative, progressive and post rock. The project started as a one man studio project in 2005 by Giancarlo Erra, but has since grown into a five piece band, evolving into something unique, focused and powerful. The music is evocative and intense, with personal songwriting. Influences range from Pink Floyd to Brian Eno, from Porcupine Tree to Sigur Ros, passing through rock and electronic/ambient.

The early demo recordings made by Giancarlo were followed by the official debut album, 'Sol29', which was released in 2005 and quickly gained attention across Europe. This attention created demand for live shows and following the recruitment of the rest of the band Nosound embarked on a short tour. The live DVD, 'The World is Outside' captured this tour and was followed in 2007 by the limited edition (100 copies) live album, 'Slow, It Goes' and an exclusive EP 'Clouds'.

Three years on from debut album Sol29, Nosound returned in 2008 with the highly anticipated second album, 'Lightdark', initially given a limited release through the Burning Shed label. Recorded in Italy, England and the US throughout 2006 and 2007, 'Lightdark' develops further the promise of their debut album and exhibits a stronger group identity, revealing a greater contrast between the atmospheric detail and the walls of sound created by the band on stage. The album features collaborations with singer Tim Bowness (No-Man) and Marianne DeChastelaine on cello. A remastered edition of Sol29, featuring tracks recorded during the original album sessions but not included on the album, was released in conjunction with Lightdark.

In July 2008 the band signed to the post-progressive Kscope/Snapper. A new 2 CD edition of Lightdark was released on Kscope on September 15th 2008. The bonus disc features 4 tracks not on the original release and the video for 'Lightdark'. Deatiled info, bonus material, previews and downloads for Lightdark are available at www.lightdark.net official promo website. In 2009 the album won the italian Prog Awards as Best Recording of 2008.

The third album called 'A Sense Of Loss' was released again on Kscope 26th October 2009, in a special deluxe format cd+dvd including the original album, plus stereo 24bit, 5.1 DTS and Dolby mixes, video, galleries and more extra contents. Following the album release the band played important festivals and major live events, among with its Wooden String Quartet already featured on the album. 'A Sense Of Loss' saw the band going more toward a more original and unique approach to music, going away from their early influences and away from classic rock sounds, using a real string quartet. More info, bonus material, previews and downloads are available from the official release promo website www.asenseofloss.com.

In 2009 the album wins the italian Prog Awards again as Best Recording of 2009, winning over major acts like Muse and Porcupine Tree. …
