The double disc "Shipwreck Radio Volume Two" contains eight enigmatic episodes from Utvaer. Between June and July 2004, as guests of Kunst I Nordland, NWW broadcast 24 unexpected radio transmissions from the chilly world of the Arctic Lofoten Islands, 8 of which are included here.

"Just as the first volume was an effort to reshape the world around them in sound, the second volume of Shipwreck Radio turns the world of Lofoten into a strange place occupied by distortions of the Arctic's natural sound world... the majesty of the work that follows is undeniable and in some ways, very much a return for Stapleton to his work on Soliloquy For Lilith... eerie, slowly moving ploughs of heavy, dirty soundscapes. There can be no doubt of Lofoten's remoteness nor of its strange openness, the absolute loneliness its landscapes must inspire after listening to both discs" (Brainwashed). Presented in a 6-panel double digipak.





As a bonus, included is "Shipwreck Radio: Final Broadcasts" - the final two 30-minute broadcasts from Utvaer. The first track "[swells] into aggressive bursts of volume in increasing lengths as the track progresses, with a particularly bone-rattling eruption occurring just after the 20-minute mark. Frequently the sound hovers like thick, humid air, as if waiting for an unnamed menace to slither forth from the darkness... I found it to be one of the more viscerally thrilling and frightening Nurse With Wound experiences I've had in a while... the last track in the Shipwreck series, "July 13" is quite the headcleaner... repeated unsettling voice manipulations that become a rippling landscape of their own, stretching syllables into unnatural technological groans... an invigorating addition to the group's catalog" (Brainwashed). Printed paper cover.
