Lull (band)

Lull is a dark ambient side-project of former Napalm Death drummer Mick Harris (who also co-founded the ambient dub outfit Scorn).

Lull was conceived in late 1991 in an attempt to create music that would stretch, if not forsake entirely, the structures of conventional music by developing and exploring sound without beats. Harris' initial foray as Lull into low frequency sound exploration was issued in late 1992 under the title Dreamt About Dreaming on the respected underground Sentrax label. In between his Scorn commitments, Harris continued to develop Lull by recording and releasing scores of 7's and compilation tracks, as well as two more full-lengths that each punctuated another stage of his progression.

Lull favors sombre, minimalistic drones that create a dark, other-worldly atmosphere. Its sound is generally amusical, and very experimental. A similar-sounding album entitled Somnific Flux was recorded by Harris and Bill Laswell in 1995.
