Three years on from debut album Sol29, Nosound returns with its highly anticipated second album, 'Lightdark', released through the Burning Shed label.
Regarded by critics and fans alike as one of the most interesting up and coming alt/art rock bands in Europe, Lightdark sees the Nosound identity evolve into something even more focused and powerful.
'Lightdark' inventively combines influences from '70s psychedelia, '80s/'90s ambient and contemporary alt/progressive rock.
Recorded in Italy, England and the US throughout 2006 and 2007, the album develops further the promise of debut album 'Sol29' and exhibits a stronger group identity which reveals a greater contrast between atmospheric detail and the walls of sound created by the band on stage.
Highlights include the 15 minute epic 'From Silence to Noise', the ethereal 'The Misplay' (with cellist Marianne DeChastelaine), and the epic piano/mellotron driven ballad 'Someone Starts To Fade Away' (which features No-Man's Tim Bowness on vocals).
The album includes a stylish 16 page booklet complete with photos and lyrics.

NOSOUND was started as a one man studio project in late 2002 by Giancarlo Erra, but has since become a band in studio and for live performances. Music is evocative and intense, with personal songwriting. Influences go from Pink Floyd to Brian Eno, from Porcupine Tree to Sigur Ros, passing through rock, electronic/ambient and postrock.
Official debut album ('Sol29') was released the first quarter of 2005, followed in 2006 by a live Dvd ('The World is Outside') containing also unreleased material. A new live was issued in the first half of 2007 ('Slow, it goes'). Anticipating the new album was then released an exclusive Ep ('Clouds'), containing three out takes from recording sessions of the new album Lightdark.
A DVD-r with unreleased material was released in May 2006.
A cd-r demo containing the first elements of Nosound music.
A NEW ALBUM called LIGHTDARK was released in February 2008 on BurningShed (UK) label, featuring important collaborations with UK singer Tim Bowness (from No-Man) and Marianne DeChastelaine ..o.
