Biography

Blek Ink is a collection of pop songs by way of dissonance and
abstraction. Icelander Paul Lydon's voice is a gentle presence amongst
clamorous guitars, chimes and keyboard sounds. He's been releasing
tapes on his Nano label for years now and put out an instrumental album
two years ago under the name Sanndreymi. While that album shared a
musical sphere with Tower Recordings and Dead C, Blek Ink throws in a
little Alastair Galbraith. The sound is more song-oriented, fitting
together incongruous musical ages like they were always meant to
collide.-Ba Da Bing
