About Me

I am Giel. Often, I am joined by Pol Vanlaer and Tim Marsoul = NOIR. From time to time other people join the band to make a soundpiece or to perform with us live on stage. Check out the band's website/blog. NOIR started somewhere at the end of 2006, making experimental doom and unconventional anarchy. We are always in for gigs or projects. - Contact: bils_giel at hotmail dot com or on myspace.
