Nothnegal company information, Employees & Contact Information

After leaving their previous band MORTUARY, guitarists Hilarl and Fufu found NOTHNEGAL on the capital island Malé in 2006. At first they dedicate themselves to melodic Death Metal. The cousins are aiming for a high level of professionalism right from the start, which leads to several changes in the line-up before the recording of their first release "Antidote of Realism" (2009). This self produced 4 track EP was mixed by Finnish producer Anssi Kippo, who is known for his work with CHILDREN OF BODOM and NORTHER among others. Even though "Antidote of Realism" gets released through the internet it gains the band immediate worldwide attention and positive reactions. Their line-up is completed in April 2009, when American drummer Kevin Talley (DÅÅTH, ex-CHIMAIRA, ex-DYING FETUS, ex-MISERY INDEX) and Finnish keyboard player Marco Sneck (KALMAH, POISONBLACK) join NOTHNEGAL as official members. With their new crew and more experience the band sets out to record their album debut. During the song writing and recording process, NOTHNEGAL shift away from the previous melodic Death Metal and focus on creating a new original sound that melts together Thrash, Industrial and Progressive Metal with the ambient of Maldivian atmosphere and culture. With the album slated for a release in early 2011 via Season of Mist, NOTHNEGAL are already confirmed to support FINNTROLL with fellow label mates ROTTING CHRIST on their upcoming European tour which covers 24 cities in 12 countries.
