One Leg One Eye

One Leg One Eye (Ireland )

The Nausea & Ora Cogan opening

One Leg One Eye 'One Leg One Eye is the project of Ian Lynch (founding member of Irish group Lankum) exploring submerged leylines of music and song, drawing on the raw aesthetics of black metal, noise and drone, while also being deeply embued with a sense of history and myth.

Live he is joined by score composer and veteran noise-monger George Brennan (BB84, Melodica Deathship, Cholera House).

Debut album …And Take The Black Worm With Me (released on Nyahh Records in 2022) is a slow burning suite of five expansive songscapes that has found its audience largely by word of mouth. Partly recorded in an abandoned Dublin factory where his father worked when he was a child, Lynch’s harrowing vocals are underpinned by vast pillars of uileann pipe drones, overlaid with effects and field recordings to conjure up a sound that is at once dark, mysterious and ultimately transcendental.

The Nausea layers minimalist gestures, dense texture, and harsh noise to build enveloping sonic universes that use the magnitude and force of sound to build a "chamber doom" experience. Performances are often described as immersive, cathartic or cinematic and include live instrumentation and electronic processing. The Nausea has toured extensively and performed across Canada, in Europe, and in Japan with releases on noise and experimental record labels Absurd Exposition, Buried in Slag and Debris, and Aught \ Void.For this performance, The Nausea will be performing a special collaboration set with Ora Cogan.
