“The Blood Pressure Sessions is a gorgeous, disconcerting event that grows deeper and more addicting with each listen” -Skyscraper magazine
“Blood Pressure Sessions hits the spot just so… the album indeed is a thing of dark primitive beauty” -Brian Turner, WFMU radio
“Sydney based duo with keys, female vocals, bass and drumbox. Unlike some groups with a line-up like this, they stay away from beats and focus on No Wave (or perhaps, 'little band' harshness. Very stark in a black and white kind of way, and really quite hep" -The Wire (UK)
"For this second full-length effort, Naked on the Vague eschew their tantalizingly sparse duo attack for a quartet line-up, and the results are as sensational as they are sinister. While the rickety, no-wave splat found on previous efforts had its appeal, the heft of a "proper" rhythm section has only helped Naked on the Vague delve deeper into the landscape of post-punk murk. Bleak, unrepentant, withering and droll, Heaps of Nothing is a 21st century codification of the gallows wit and mesmerizing otherworldliness of (Dub Housing-era) Pere Ubu, Primitive Calculators and Lemon Kittens. Shuttling mutant urbanity from past to present, Naked on the Vague is only too eager to confirm that the Earth isn't flat. Because Heaps of Nothing is here to flatten it"- Tom Lax, Siltbreeze

Naked On the Vague is Lucy Cliche (keys/vox/drum box), Matthew Hopkins (guitar/electronics), Nic De Jong (bass guitar) and Lachlan Vercoe (drums).
Naked On The Vague were born out of Sydney, Australia in 2006, taking to the world their own style of apocalyptic no-wave pop and dark psychedelic weirdness... Originally a keys, guitar and drum machine duo, the band recently expanded to include a ‘proper’ rhythm section to the effect of upping the garagey-pop vibe, yet also the visceral density.
The Naked On The Vague approach meshes punk, industrial and psychedelic sounds all tinkered with a heavy dose of distortion and delay.
