Marissa Nadler - New Radiations (Indies)

Marissa Nadler returns on her tenth official album, "New Radiations," with a raw, intimate, and stunning collection of eleven otherworldly songs.

From the first note, Nadler's lush voice and intricate fingerpicking take center stage. She combines Everly Brothers-esque harmonies with dreamlike, lonely soundscapes—fuzzy distortion, Hammond organ, and ominous synths—that enhance her warm vulnerability with texture and atmosphere. Lyrically, her scope is cinematic and deeply personal. Throughout New Radiations, the contrast between sweet, catchy melodies and dark, visceral lyrics is striking.

Produced by Nadler herself, recorded in Nashville, and mixed by Randall Dunn (Earth, Sunn O))), New Radiations freezes the noise of the world in a moment of beauty and solemnity. New Radiations is not just another album: it's a milestone in her career, a testament to Marissa Nadler's singular vision and artistry.
