Wikipedia

  1. naevus

    Nevus (plural nevi) is a nonspecific medical term for a visible, circumscribed, chronic lesion of the skin or mucosa. The term originates from nævus, which is Latin for "birthmark"; however, a nevus can be either congenital (present at birth) or acquired. Common terms, including mole, birthmark, and beauty mark, are used to describe nevi, but these terms do not distinguish specific types of nevi from one another.

  1. Naevus

    Naevus is a British experimental rock group. Formed in London in 1998 by Lloyd James and Joanne Owen, Naevus were often categorised as part of the ‘neo-folk’ genre. Their music has also drawn critical comparison with acts such as Swans and Wire, and often includes elements of industrial music. The band released four albums between 1999 and 2004 before expanding to a four-piece with the addition of John Murphy and Greg Ferrari. Their first album with the expanded line-up was Silent Life, which was a critical success, and included contributions from members of Urge Within, Sieben, and Current 93. Their sixth album Relatively Close To The Sea saw them combining elements of their earlier post-punk sounds alongside more melodic material and progressive rock elements. In 2009, Hunter Barr returned as drummer, having previously played on EP 'The Body Speaks' in 2004, and the EP Days that Go followed in 2010. The seventh Naevus album, 'The Division of Labour', was completed by Lloyd James as a solo effort and was released in May 2012.
