Naevus
Back Home
In 2023, recordings began for a third album. At last here, Back Home is its title, and quite aptly. NAEVUS are nothing if not consistent, and within the opening minute - hell, even seconds - you are right Back Home with their warm, emotive doom. And yet, while NAEVUS traditional-yet-signature sound remains stronger than ever, the means of arriving at that have changed some. Nowadays, the band acts more flexibly and arranges the entire songs together, which was previously almost exclusively reserved for Uwe Groebel. Groebels vocals are as melodically hypnotic as ever, too, with the very personal lyrics imparting loss and grief but also with love and hope - a quality surely highlighted by the mans warm pipes. Cementing this sensation of warmth and comfort - effectively, being Back Home - the cover art was once again created by Roland Scriver.
