NOx are a duo from Portugal that plays a mixture of harsh noise and power electronics and this is a review of their 2024 album "Altar" which was released by Collectivo Casa Amarela.
Power electronics start off the album which also mix in a variety of beats after awhile before adding in some harsh noises. Some of the music also has its repetitive moments along with the recording also going into more of an experimental direction at times and all of the songs are also all instrumentals.
All of the tracks also sound very different from each other while a couple of songs are also very long and epic in length and at times the album also captures a very apocalyptic sounding atmosphere and all of the music is also improvised.
NOx plays a musical style that takes experimental, power electronics and noise and mixes them together to create a sound of their own as well as keeping everything instrumental while the production sounds very dark.
In my opinion NOx are a very great sounding mixture of experimental, harsh noise and power electronics and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this duo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "L' "R". 8 out of 10.
