The first album the Dutch band The Nits recorded together with keyboard player Robert Jan Stips was a step in a new direction. With the release of Omsk the band created a piece of Art Rock consisting of many atmospheric songs. The recording itself is excellent and some out-standing classics like “Nescio”, “A Touch of Henry Moore”, and “Tons of Ink” are all part of this wonderful album. Omsk is a an innovative record in every way, opening the doors to a bright future for the Nits.
Omsk is available as a limited edition of 500 individually numbered copies on transparent vinyl.
