lyrics
Le Dormeur du Val
C’est un trou de verdure où chante une rivière,
Accrochant follement aux herbes des haillons
D’argent; où le soleil, de la montagne fière,
Luit: c’est un petit val qui mousse de rayons.
Un soldat jeune, bouche ouverte, tête nue,
Et la nuque baignant dans le frais cresson bleu,
Dort; il est étendu dans l’herbe, sous la nue,
Pâle dans son lit vert où la lumière pleut.
Les pieds dans les glaïeuls, il dort. Souriant comme
Sourirait un enfant malade, il fait un somme :
Nature, berce-le chaudement: il a froid.
Les parfums ne font pas frissonner sa narine;
Il dort dans le soleil, la main sur sa poitrine,
Tranquille. Il a deux trous rouges au côté droit.
(Arthur Rimbaud, deuxième cahier de Douai, 1870)
The sleeper of the valley
It is a green hollow where a river sings,
Madly clinging to grass rags
Silver ; where the sun, from the proud mountain,
shines, it is a small valley foaming with rays.
A young soldier, mouth open, head bare,
And the neck bathed in fresh blue watercress,
Sleeps; he is lying in the grass, under the clouds,
Pale in his green bed where the light rains.
His feet in the gladioli, he sleeps. Smiling like
A sick child would smile, he takes a nap:
Nature, rock him warmly: he is cold.
Perfumes do not make his nostrils shiver;
He sleeps in the sun, his hand on his chest,
Calm. There are two red holes on the right side.
(Arthur Rimbaud, second notebook of Douai, 1870)

constantly renewed (loneliness, our finitude, love, fear, the relationship to the world...).
NcN offers an introspective journey, attempting to perceive reality in its essence and its effects.
The main theme today is "give peace a chance"...NcN is born in 2014....more

I have listen to SOM intensely since hearing the first bars of "Black Planet", and I have heard many imitations and mediocre renditions. This album. Floors. Me. Each track is a unique, personal and strikingly powerful musical execution of insight into the truly unique magick of this most inimitable group. My only criticism--and it is tragic one--is that the vinyl version was not the full "Honoris II" collection. Gods! Get this, servants: it is music to rise and reverberate to. Nafre de la Toundra

Vraiment un album très intimiste qui plonge littéralement dans les profondeurs de la noirceur cold. Un disque puissant qui nous entraîne dans des étreintes musicales et sonores sans limites.
