More on N.I.L.
Description from Wikipedia:
N.I.L. ("Nihilism Is Liberation") is an American ambient black/doom metal band formed in 2004 by N. Imperial (a pseudonym of Neill Jameson). Initially, N. Imperial conceived of N.I.L. as a one-off solo project after his departure from black metal outfit Krieg. When the band consolidated into a duo, with the arrival of J. Marcheski in 2006, the project came to fruition with a self-titled release in 2007.
While N.I.L. is as yet a fledging addition to the underground black/doom metal scene, they are hailed as the return to form of ex-Krieg front-man N. Imperial, whose impressive resume further includes Judas Iscariot, Nachtmystium, Twilight and Weltmacht, as well as various other metal bands.
Unlike most bands in the genre, N.I.L. does not appear in corpse paint, nor do their lyrics focus on paganism or Satanism, but rather on solitude and nihilism. Musically, too, they divert from typical features of black metal (such as fast riffs and blast beats), but are instead characterized by bleak and slow, down-tempo, minimalist drones as well as acoustic passages more common in funeral doom.
