RÏCÏNN comments "I am very pleased to invite you to Nereïd's listening party! We will listen to the album in its entirety together, I'll be in the chat section hanging out with you and answering your questions. There might be some cool guests on the chat as well that night. See you soon online!"

RÏCÏNN has so far only unveiled two tracks from the album: 'Psamatae' and  'Doris', which features guest vocals from Travis Ryan of Cattle Decapitation.

Nereïd  will be released on 23rd October via Blood Music, pre-order here: http://www.blood-music.com/store

In a world of appearances, RÏCÏNN was born from the desire to remain true to her instrument, the voice.

As a child, she cooked remedies, formulas, and prayers to serve them to the world. An expression of 'The Now'. Fire & water, whales & birds, sounds emanating from the mist, blown by the windy shore, spitting the scrambling wreckage of a damaged arch, vestige from an ancient and forgotten civilisation, flooded into the oversights of time.

RÏCÏNN appears as the lonely survivor of a pre-post apocalyptic universe, a new world in which she bereaves the loss of her unknown culture.

Nereïd is a concoction of many cultures, assimilated and included with her own language. The experience of an incarnation in the material world, falling into the living, as the nymphs of Poseidon move the ocean, making choices, harmonising the rhythms of nature.

Known for her work as female vocalist for breakcore outfit Igorrr, experimental gothic funeral metal band Öxxö Xööx, and experimental trip-hop unit Corpo-Mente; RÏCÏNN's beautiful, solo work lies in the realm of funeral opera - with nearly all composition, instrumentation, and imagery created by the artist herself.

The result is a celestial dance, moving into unexpected explosions of terror, each sacred in their own right.

For fans of Diamanda Galás, Chelsea Wolfe, Klaus Nomi and Bjork.
