Annalized_Noiose are
Annalisa Pascai Saiu – sardinian interdisciplinary artist, poet, parresiast, ritual performer,singer, improviser, visual artist, underground and indipendent curator.
Emilio Bernè – italo-istrian drummer,improviser, noisician and sound/noise performer.

Annalized_Noiose is the synthesis of two languages and two sound research systems.

Annalized has embraced the tradition of Sardinian improvising poets in full parresiasta style. A flow of sound in which he tells mythological stories, philosophical or ironic themes; weaving songs, now improvised on Byzantine scales, now in ancient Greek, always improvised and site-specific. Noiose originates in the combination of techniques combined with the idea of simulating electronics through prepared and amplified acoustic instruments. The drum and the no input mixer are integrated into the set as reference instruments in the research work, in the sound manipulation and as dynamic objects of a series of gestural and performative actions.

OvO

OvO has always been one of the most active bands in the worldwide noisy rock scene. They have been known pretty much everywhere through more than 1000 gigs, their large amount of releases, including albums, singles, collaborations, tracks on compilations, dvds, and for their original, unique music. They’re a duo, formed by a little possessed singer and guitar player (Stefania Pedretti) and an enormous drummer who plays a mini-set like it was a full metal drum set. Their live performances are legendary, and they’ve played them all over the world, with extensive tours in Europe, North America, Mexico, Asia, including a lot of the main festivals: Roadburn and Le Guess Who? In the Netherlands, The Wire Festival in Chicago, FIMAV in Canada, Supersonic in England, Amplifest in Portugal, Inferno in Norway, Mystic in Poland, Santarcangelo, Krakatoa and Frantic in Italy, Groland and Sonic protest in France, Tomorrow Festival in China.
What they do is not easy to file. It’s not noise, not metal, not doom, not punk, not rock and roll, even if there’s a little bit of all these. Certainly it’s not free nor avant nor improv. For once, we can really say that it’s a band you can’t file.
After some full lengths on their label Bar La Muerte, they release albums on American labels such as legendary Load records and Blossoming Noise, then two albums on Supernatural Cat and one on Dio Drone. With “Miasma” they started to be released by the Canadian label Artoffact, which will release this new one called “Ignoto” as well.
They collaborated or played with the most important names of contemporary experimental rock music (Alan Dubin, Big Brave, Divide And Dissolve,Raven Chacon, Carla Bozulich, Arabrot, Gnod, KK Null, Godflesh, Psychic TV, Dillinger Escape Plan, Ufomammut, Nadja, Thrones, Body Void among the others), and they worked for cinema projects (Frankenstein, Nosferatu, Inferno) and performing arts (“Aeneis V” by Lenz, “Canto Primo” by Gruppo Nanou).
“IGNOTO” is a sludge vision, or nightmare, that plays on the border between life and death, starting from sci-fi insipration. But we all know that reality can be much worse.
