Album Review: Guerre - Ex Nihilo

Where some of us like to listen to songs we can sing along to, there are a few who prefer to be challenged by the type of ambient, glitch music that Sydney-based Canadian producer Lavurn Lee (aka Guerre) has delivered on his debut record Ex Nihilo. While not the first Australian artist to tread this path (think Collarbones, Seekae, etc.), Guerre's raw production and ability to balance darkness and light within a single track signals Ex Nihilo as another feather in the hat of a resurgent lo-fi sound worming its way into the Australian music scene.
