Uboa

Uboa is the alias of Xandra Metcalfe, an experimental music artist hailing from Australia. Renowned for her unsettling and emotive amalgamation of dark ambient, noise, drone, and electronic styles, Uboa has carved a unique niche within the underground music scene. Her work often delves into deeply personal themes, exploring the nuances of mental illness, gender dysphoria, and existential dread, which resonates with listeners on a profound level.

Since emerging in the music scene, Uboa has received critical acclaim for her ability to intertwine harsh sonic landscapes with a sense of fragile vulnerability. Albums such as "The Origin of My Depression" and "The Flesh of the World" showcase her adept skill in crafting intensely cathartic experiences that confront listeners with a raw, unfiltered glimpse into her psyche. Alongside solo works, Uboa has collaborated with artists such as Muddy Lawrence on the release "The Apple of Every Eye," further expanding her auditory exploration and reach. With a growing discography that includes evocative works like "The Sky May Be" and its extension "The Sky May Be (Extus)," along with the emotional resonance found in "Please Get Home Safe," Uboa continues to push the boundaries of experimental music and solidify her presence as an influential and thought-provoking artist.
