A band you lot may like a lot

Nihil from Bordeaux - France

I've already ranted about them but it doesn't matter.
They started as a gloomy heavy rock band ala Tool with a touch of nu-metal... DON'T STOP READING FFS ! They've released three albums, the
second one being a top melancholic heavy rock act and the last one a MASTERPIECE of soft ambiant pop stuff.

Here are the details :

1st album : "1 A.M" (2000) - gloomy heavy rock metal with soft ethereal moments -

2nd album : "(in)visible" (2002) - melancholic pop/rock stuff with heavy bits -

3rd album : "Pandora's Box" (2004) - absolutely soft and ambient pop music -

Give'em a chance if you like the samples. If you're not 100% convinced, download the albums on Emule and then Buy'em !

Not a threat, but I'll need the webspace cleaned up soon for some purpose.

Cool, if you have a P2P program, give a chance to all of the 3 albums and if you end up wanting to buy one or many od the albums, ask me directly
