Biography:
The Nihilistic Front formed in january 2005. The initial intent was to fuse elements from bands like Godflesh and Disembowelment and would be an instrumental one-man solo project. It became apparent that something was missing, so Gaz called upon Chris, an old f®iend from Excarnated to contribute on vocals. Gaz had previously spent a few years on guitar/bass in Excarnated, and had also formed "Antichrist" with Chris in 1996 so there was never any other vocalist in mind.
Rehearsals began in june 2006 after much discussion/drinking. Chris had not sung for a few months after disbanding Excarnated, and Gaz had not rehearsed with humans for well over 5 years. Despite this, things came together quite easily and recorded the debut release "The Four Seasons In Misery" in late 2006. After a lengthy break, "The Null Factor Law" was written and recorded. Initially slated for a 2007 release on lathe vinyl, the release was cancelled early 2008 and is currently unreleased. This track has been made available via Bandcamp as a free download.
Throughout 2008/early 2009 we wrote and recorded another full-length album entitled "Total Disgust For Mankind". This album contains three filthy tracks of Doom and Death.
Soon after the release of "Total Disgust" we began work on a new album. The two track album entitled "Apocryphal Dirge" was released in July 2011.
Work is already underway for a new album (tba 2012) to be released via Aesthetic Death Records.
We have never played live although we plan on possibly doing a few shows in the future.
