Say Psych: Premiere: Nest Egg – Dislocation


Nest Egg were formed in 2011 and hail from Asheville, North Carolina. The band have honed their sound on the live circuit and their new LP Dislocation was released last week on The Acid Test Recordings and Little Cloud Records and BSM is pleased to bring you the video premiere of ‘

Dislocation is the follow-up to 2018’s Nothingness Is Not A Curse, released on Fuzz Club. Nest Egg specialise in krautrock wizardry and their songs are built upon repetition and drone, all sheltered within a hive of buzzsaw guitars and analogue synths. No sound is wasted, space is the place, songs will evolve and grow for as long as they need to. There is organisation in chaos; they describe their sound as “mood music for nihilists”, a fitting epithet.

The track is the type of classic krautrock genius that we have come to know and love them for. The pace of the track leaves you breathless whilst trying to work out how they can make so much sound, so quickly and so effortlessly. The track only intensifies and gets to the point where there aren’t words to describe it, it can only be absorbed and appreciated.
