About Me


Nefastus Dies officially took form in march 2002 when Void and Betrayal met drummer Tommy Mckinnon, bassist Auriel and finally keyboardist Iraabbas. It's at this precise moment that the band started composing as a whole and hence the primal conceptual direction was born. The band mainly focused on creating new songs and playing shows when the opportunity presented itself. At that time there was enough material to record two full length album and the band started gaining live experience through various gigs. Unfortunately, drummer Tommy Mckinnon was then asked to leave for personal reasons. Scythrawl (ex Trails of Anguish / Unquintessence) was afterwards contacted to take over the drumming duties. This marked a new step for the band's direction. After a lot of discussion the band agreed that drastic changes needed to be applied to the overall sound and concept. Most songs we're butchered then restructured in a more vicious and agressive manner. The concept was also rebuilt from scratch. Betrayal dropped vocals and focused only on guitar. They then contacted Ill-Fate (ex bassist for Winter Bestowed & Ion Dissonance) to take over the vocal dutties.
The band released gutiarist Betrayal and moved main composer Auriel from bass to guitar and went on their "A prelude of somber days yet to come" tour to promote their "Prelude" promo recording. In march they entered Yannick St-Amand's studio to record their first full length "Urban Cancer". The album will be out by then end of the year on Siege Of Amida records and through Candlelight Records in america
