Biography

London, United Kingdom (2002 – present)

NFD comprise Tony Pettitt, the Fields of the Nephilim founder-bassist, who teamed up with vocalist/guitarist Peter (Bob) White and drummer Simon Rippin when the Nephilim reunion floundered in 2002. Simon was previously in both Nefilim and Fields of the Nephilim line-ups, as well as together with Bob in Sensorium. For live gigs they bring in two extra guitarists, Chris Milden and Steve Carey.

Their Nephilim roots gave them immediate attention from that band’s still devoted following, but press reviews surpassed any casual goodwill. “NFD’s ‘No Love Lost’ simply devastates and lays waste to every other gothic wannabe band of the last decade. Some of the best gothic rock music produced since the late 80’s” was Rock Sounds’ verdict. Metal Hammer said: “An absolute must-have.” And Germany’s Sonic Seducer called it “Possibly THE gothrock album of the year”. The German press in particular have got behind the band with regular features in Zillo, Orkus & Sonic Seducer magazines.

NFD have performed at numerous festivals, both in the UK (Whitby headline, Dark City, Witchfest) and Germany (Mera Luna, Zillo, Wave-Gotik Treffen, Burgnachte, Herbsnachte) and toured UK & Europe on their own and with Mortiis, Umbra Et Imago & The Mission.

In 2008 Luca Mazzucconi replaced Simon Rippin on the drum stool, and James McIlroy (Cradle Of Filth) replaced Steve Carey on guitar.

    If the singer hadn't tried so hard to imitate McCoy it would've been so much better. It's quite pale in comparison to FOTN.

    it strongly lacks McCoy =) appears that they cant make something special without Carl... melodies are very usual... i'd prefer even HIM

    Мне бы уж хотелось "Никакой электроники, никаких заигрываний с модным нынче лав-металом: 3 гитары, бас, ударные и никакого вокала, идентичного голосу МакКоя." Просто потому что для меня есть только один Карл МакКой.

    Someone on lastfm should have an eye on band-descriptions like this - this is far from being unbiased ... . I like NFD very much, but i think the sideblows on Carl McCoy and the Fields are unnecessary.
