Hey you, shining disaster: welcome to NOEMI AURORA‘s Multiverse of sounds and visions!
The Italian singer-songwriter and music producer, renowned for her nearly two-decade journey with the magnetic duo HELALYN FLOWERS, has established herself as a standout voice in the Electro/Industrial and Alternative Metal realms. Her versatile and distinctive style has earned her a place among modern Goth legends, leading to countless collaborations and vocal features.
With “Kintsugi”, Noemi Aurora unveils her first solo masterpiece, a deeply personal and artistic journey that showcases her multifaceted talents in their fullest form. Acting as a true creative alchemist, she’s crafted every detail of the album herself (writing, recording, producing, performing, and mastering each track). The result is a sonic and emotional odyssey that is introspectively sensual, fiercely powerful, and utterly transformative.
From the poetic mid-tempo wave pop opener “Keep Your Tears to Water My Roots” to the mystic experimental closer “Yugen,” the album captivates with a kaleidoscope of emotions and sounds. Her music, as previewed by the cinematic single “Blood As Lipstick” and the hypnotic club hit “Shining,” blends her electro-industrial and dark wave roots with ethereal sensibility and raw post-punk intensity. Noemi’s hauntingly versatile vocals evoke legends like DEAD CAN DANCE, SIOUXSIE, and KATE BUSH, while her music reveals eclectic influences ranging from LADYTRON, FRONT 242, MASSIVE ATTACK, to COCTEAU TWINS.
‘Kintsugi’ delves into themes of pain, healing, and resilience, with raw emotional depth that reaches new heights, especially when she sings in her native Italian on tracks like “Dal Giardino Di Algos” and “Too Late To Die”. It’s an album that transforms vulnerability into strength and brokenness into beauty, inspiring listeners to embrace their imperfections and let their inner light shine through.
This transformative journey is available in stunning physical editions: a limited-edition collector’s “shining” gatefold vinyl (150 copies in two unique designs: sunburst solid white + black and galaxy transparent red + black effect) and a deluxe digipak double-CD “disaster” edition. The latter includes the “Magnetica” bonus disc with 11 remixes by very diverse artists like IMPLANT, AIBOFORCEN, INERTIA, AESTHETISCHE, LLUMEN, PSY’AVIAH, METROLAND, KORINTHIANS, VOYNA, PEOPLE THEATRE, SYSTEME PARADOXE, plus a breathtaking cover of THE CURE’s “Friday I’m In Love”.
“Kintsugi” speaks to anyone who has faced the abyss and emerged stronger, weaving a tapestry of golden threads from life’s broken pieces. NOEMI AURORA invites you to embrace your resilience, turning every scar into a radiant mark of beauty. This is more than music – it’s a luminous ode to transformation and hope.
