about

Calling on the roots of his midwestern adolescence, and recalling the bands of his youth- the ones seen in dingy bars and basements that smelled like a terrible mix of stale beer, cigarette smoke, and too much weed- NAAL releases a 1 of 2 EP, Chaos Monsters, with those formative experiences and sounds in mind. Chaos Monsters moves in the more defined direction of some straight-up rock and roll tunes, complemented by the long delay repeats and washy reverb sounds associated with the post-rock and midwestern-emo scenes he draws from.

Chaos Monsters is a tale of high adventure- as Deathcab wrote, "I have learned that even landlocked lovers yearn for the sea, like Navy men." A journey of adventure and terror, love and loss, life and death, Chaos Monsters, with its companion EP "Compass" is a similar journey for the senses and the heart.
