Reviews have called it "genuinely impressive" and "overpowering", Ad Noiseam is proud to release today LARVAE's second album, the magnificent "Dead Weight":
LARVAE "Dead Weight" - adn64 - CD and 2x12" With their second album, LARVAE strip their music out of the genres they had been associated with, and focus on a sincere reflection on their musical roots, their position as a band, and their place in the musical landscape.

KEEF BAKER "Pure Language" - adn59 - MCD KEEF BAKER offers here a solid 6-track MCD of warm voices flowing on top of a very distinctive bass and a new found drum'n'bass twist. KEEF BAKER enriches this vocabulary with a playful use of tempo changes and contained noise, writing down a music both human and massive, full of emotion and yet assertive. "Pure Language" is neither a whisper nor a shout, but a thoughtful and laid statement, to be listen to with care and enjoyed with ears wide opened.

How is the new album from Larvae? the track on the Ad Noiseam compilation 2001-2006 was quite slow, but good. Just want to hear if there is any harsh stuff on? Mailorder/Promotion Company www.braincorp.dk
I probably should order it, even if it´s only half as good as fashion victim it´s briliant. But I guess I blew my monthly cd-budget already a while ago. sorry... next month! for sure ! - ban synth-pop from the industrial dancefloor -
Believe me, it's a lot more so that "Fashion Victim" is half as good as "Dead Weight". This new album is really something out there, and clearly the best that Larvae has ever done. - www.adnoiseam.net
Ad Noiseam is proud to announce today that Larvae's second album, "Dead Weight" is now available both on CD and on double 12" vinyl.

Released three weeks ago on CD, "Dead Weight" has already gained a critical acclaim, with press hailing this album for his depth, the talent of its composition, and its originality.
Moreover, note two other recent releases for Larvae:
LARVAE / ENDUSER "Unraveled Ears" Ad Noiseam adn61 12" At the top of their form, Enduser and Larvae presents here the definite encounter of hard hitting breakcore and bass-heavy, dark drum'n'bass. With its high-level production and a great attention to the detail, “Unraveled Ears” is a juggernaut of heavy beats, sudden breaks and sweeping low frequencies: godsend for DJ, and a treat for all fans of clever hard tunes. The hardest, heaviest and best produced encounter between breakcore and drum'n'bass one could dream of. Information and mp3 here. Get it in the Ad Noiseam mailorder catalog.
On the live front, watch out for Larvae's shows together with Shadowhuntaz (of Skam fame): -July 14th at The High Note in Birmingham, AL, USA -July 15th at 11:11 Teahouse in Atlanta, GA, USA -July 16th at Criminal Records (at 3PM) in Atlanta, GA, USA
Finally, note that today is the birthday of Matthew Jeanes, Larvae's main composer. - www.adnoiseam.net

I agree Dead Weight is a great album, I think it´s a lot different from the first album, it´s great with the added vocals, nice production!
