BIOGRAPHY
First LITH's noise experiences began in the middle of 1995. David Valle, far from his first project, Semper Eadem (ambiant and neoclassical project), tried new styles, like ambiant and experimental industrial music.
after one year, LITH releases its first demo tape, 'urban symphony'. music was influenced by ambiant industrial and electronic music, and the themes are mainly nonsense and violence of human behaviors, pollution, destruction, war... these first ideological orientations give the tone which will follow in LITH's history .
a few weeks later, another demo tape is released, ' tribes'. it is published under a split tape ' rites and tribes' with JAMMERTAL, a ritual industrial music project by Thierry Robin (Skull in the Wall, Exotoendo). the music of ' tribes' is a kind of industrial tribal rhythmic music, based this time on the study of the human regroupings, like tribes, religious groups, mass revolutions, and a special title, ' toxic waste', treating of a real fact which has occurred in 1996, and which caused the evacuation of almost 2500 people.

after 'aussterben', which was the first LITH's succes, came ' narcotic', the last production released on Sinik Department. like ' aussterben', the pieces treated human defects, specism, vivisection, pollution, war...
in April 2002 out of the first production Cd LITH, "Pylon", under the label Divine Comedy Records.
after two years of composing, collaborations and several lives, "Tribal End" is born. The main topic of this album is a "homage" to tribes and people disappeared or in way from extinction, holders of old knowledge of Nature.
