Nihlotep forever exists to oppose the self limiting and oppressive belief systems of religion and the convention of civilization, and to explore the internal and external void.
Founded in January of 2007, the band began working on their first demo in Fall of 2007 and the first public version was released in April of 2008. Soon after, beginning in June 2008, Nihlotep began performing live often to communicate their thoughts, feelings, and beliefs to audiences in various geographical areas in or near the San Francisco Bay Area. This band wishes to spread their message to many beings, thus, Nihlotep has performed with a variety of different types of metal bands some of which are listed at the bottom.
In January 2009, Nihlotep began recording their debut full length album, titled "Surrogate Panoptic Quantal Regality". The album included re-recordings of all the songs on their demo, an intro and two new songs. In June 2009, despite losing a guitar player a week before their departure, they embarked on a west coast tour. Alongside the band Vesterian, Nihlotep performed a total of 14 dates that included stops in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Sacramento, Oregon, Washington, and Humboldt County. The band members are looking forward to touring and recording more in the future. Nihlotep is currently writing new material.
In their existence Nihlotep has performed with such signed bands as Sothis, Abysmal Dawn, Killgasm, Mysticism Black, Insanity, Embryonic Devourment and Dismal Lapse
Notable unsigned bands the band has performed with include Mefitis, Vesterian, Slaughterbox, Witchaven, Gravespawn, Sacrament ov Impurity, Irony, Nafregah, Azathoth, Ruinnes ov Abbadon, Condemned to live, Fell Voices, Nazfiratu, Cyanic, Kha'nos, Maleficus, Dimension of Gore, Vaginal Discharge, Intesttinal Tract, Nocturnal Mourning, Holocaust

My upbringing as a fundamentalist christian: the guilt of an inhuman ideal, the suffering I experienced at the hand of my peers by ‘turning the other cheek’, the suppression of every form of creativity: physical (sex), mental (idea), and spiritual (magic), the loneliness of longing for a god that never answered, the masochism of emulating christ. Schizophrenic fragmentation in adolescence, meeting their elegant devil, discovering that hate can turn sorrow into power, that behind fear lies enlightenment, finding a new god in the void. The works of other minds, crowned with torment: H.P. Lovecraft, Jean Paul Sartre, and The Great Throng of Poets and Composers who gave me Black Metal. A sociopath for a mother, a martyr for a father. The drama of the cosmos, twisting oak trees, cliffs, and the setting sun. Great Nihlotep, who draws me unto himself, threading the inner void to the outer void.

Korism

The Great Artists of Black and Extreme Metal. All Great Musicians. The Great Artists, Teachers, Learners, and Practicers of Truth, Science, Power, and the Ebb and Flow of Passion and Compassion. The ability and Choice to celebrate Life as well as Death. The right to Create and Sustain, and the gift of Opposition and Destruction. Beholding Magick in the layers of space, thought, and the senses. Forever upon us all, cast Desire and satisfy me by my own design. May our Knowledge grow and Eclipse the ignorance of this world and may we be an instrument of this Change. With ardent veins, rip down the golden gates of heaven!!!

Solipsis

My dreams and my lack of sleep(the things that keep me awake). My relationships, romantic and otherwise. Quantum physics and the search for existential truth. All the disgusting things I have learned about religion and humanity. The sun and the moon. Death and communication with those who have crossed over, Derek Roddy, Nick Barker, Inferno, M.C. Esher, Alex Grey and other art.

Sounds Like: A diverse style of dramatic, violent, percussive, majestic black metal with elements of doom and death metal.
Record Label: Unsigned
