Philly Avant-Garde band Now I’ve Done (aka NiDi) are dropping their new full-length album, An Ill Guest, tomorrow, October, 17th, 2025! The band has teamed up with Ghost Cult to stream their new album in full, ahead of its release. Heavy and firmly eclectic, the band is equal parts Mr. Bungle, Made Out of Babies, Emilie Autumn, with a healthy dose of Devin Townsend’s musical genius, grandiosity, and weirdness. Also pause to appreciate the greatness of this album art by legend Eliran Kantor. Stream this amazing album here:

BIO:
NOW I’VE DONE IT (stylized as NiDi) began in 2010 by high school friends, multi-instrumentalist Peter Hraur, and drummer Dan Reynolds. The two set out to create music that was a unique reflection of what they love about music: high energy but heavy, fun but dramatic, and funny without being a joke. With a rebellious DIY attitude, they scraped together whatever cheap recording equipment they could afford and put together their first demo of three avant-garde inspired metal tracks, aptly titled Rigamarole. The band would go on to spend years playing in the greater Philadelphia region, offering a theatrical, energetic, yet earnest live show, performing with such acts as Parius, Alustrium, Polkadot Cadaver, and more.
Peter and Dan took a “say yes” attitude while crafting An Ill Guest, resulting in 10 tracks filled to the brim with the kind of personality that can only result when two lifelong friends disregard convention and have a little too much fun in the writing room. Over the years of performing, the band has received phenomenal feedback, being described as “the most fun I’ve had at a live show,” and inspiring listeners to dive into their own art with renewed energy.
The band’s hope is for this release to act as a radar to all those who want something a little different. It’s bold and risk-taking, heavy and dramatic, but fun and extravagant. It’s weird music for weird people.
