No Man's Land

When Canadian electronic musician Stephen Hummel's debut as Subtractive-LAD, Giving Up the Ghost, materialized in 2005 n5MD touted it as an amalgam of the label's emotional experiments in music credo. With his second album Suture (2006) Subtractive LAD toughened things up a bit by getting darker and somewhat emotionally weighted. With his new 3rd full-length for n5MD entitled No Man's Land Subtractive LAD has out shined his previous albums by creating an introspective and focused actualization of his emotions. In past outings Subtractive LAD has only hinted at such introspection and has let US see just a hint of such depth of psyche.
