Water Damage arbejder efter princippet “Maximal Repetition Minimal Deviation”. Masser af gentagelser og så få udsving som muligt, indrammer nok lyden af det amerikanske psych-drone-kollektiv meget godt. Deres soniske landskaber fører tankerne langt væk, eller som Pitcfork før har skrevet om bandets lyd: “Forget music that makes you feel no pain. What about music that makes you feel like nothing at all, that pushes and pulverizes you until every woe, hope, and worry disappears like dust?”. Det kan lyde hårdt, men midt i det larmende og minimalistiske i Water Damages lyd, er der også noget ret uimodståeligt. En langsom, ekstatisk overgivelse.
Igennem årene har der været alt fra en håndfuld til tolv bandmedlemmer i Water Damage – hvoraf flere af dem er trommeslagere. Medlemmerne er kendt fra musikprojekter såsom Spray Paint, Black Eyes, USA/Mexico, more eaze, Thor & Friends, Marriage, Swans, SUR og Astral Spirits Records. Deres musik er blevet sammenlignet med lydkunstner Tony Conrad’s album-samarbejde med krautrock-legenderne i bandet Faust ‘Outside the Dream Syndicate’, det franske motorik-rockband France og sågar The Velvet Underground. Bandet er aktuel med udgivelsen ‘Instruments’ fra maj 2025, som er blevet beskrevet som “communal jams on astral planes” i The Quietus. Forgængeren ‘E’ fra sidste år blev kaldt “a reaffirming testament to just how ecstatic and mighty minimalism can be” i Pitchfork. Kom med, bliv blæst bagover, og lokket med ind i Water Damages hypnotiske lydunivers, når de spiller på ALICE til september!

In English:
The American psych-drone collective Water Damage doesn’t just feature one — but two drummers. Their sound is marked by heavy repetition and something utterly irresistible. Get blown away, and be drawn into Water Damage’s hypnotic sonic universe when they perform at ALICE this September!
Water Damage operates by the principle of “Maximal Repetition Minimal Deviation.” A whole lot of repetition and as little variation as possible pretty much sums up the sound of this American psych-drone collective. Their sonic landscapes transport you far, far away. Or, as Pitchfork has described the band’s music: "Forget music that makes you feel no pain. What about music that makes you feel like nothing at all, that pushes and pulverizes you until every woe, hope, and worry disappears like dust?" It may sound intense, but within the roaring minimalism of Water Damage’s sound lies something strangely irresistible; a slow, ecstatic surrender.
Over the years, Water Damage has counted from a handful to a dozen members – with two of whom are drummers. The collective features musicians known from projects like Spray Paint, Black Eyes, USA/Mexico, more eaze, Thor & Friends, Marriage, Swans, SUR, and Astral Spirits Records. Their music has been compared to Tony Conrad’s collaborative album with krautrock legends Faust, Outside the Dream Syndicate, the French motorik-rock band France, and even The Velvet Underground. The band’s latest release, ‘Instruments’ from May 2025, was described by The Quietus as “communal jams on astral planes.” Its predecessor, ‘E’, from last year was hailed by Pitchfork as “a reaffirming testament to just how ecstatic and mighty minimalism can be.” Come, get blown away, and let yourself be drawn into Water Damage’s hypnotic sonic universe when the collective play at ALICE this September!
