“Nefariant blends the elegance and brutality of metal in a way I haven’t experienced since TYPE O NEGATIVE. There’s an unmatched passion and sophistication to their art and I’m excited to see what they continue to create”, said visionary Life on Fire music video director Frankie Nasso (Mudvayne, Nothing More) about the band.
Nefariant debuted to a sold out headline show in Brooklyn on February 28th 2020, two weeks before the world went into lockdown. Singer Jason Lekberg recalls, “The unfortunate timing of our initial launch became the rare opportunity to slow down and marinate. Though there are few things I like less than re-doing work, I’m excited to have had this past year to grow as a band and gain even more clarity in our vision.”
After spending the quarantine re-mixing the EP with Ulrich Wild (Pantera, Deftones) and re-mastering with Paul Logus (Corey Taylor, Anthrax), Nefariant finally felt like they had found their voice that drives the ‘elegant and brutal’ mindset of the project. “We felt like Ulrich really understood where we were coming from and what we were trying to create. It’s challenging to find a balance between heavy riffs and heavily melodic piano parts where both segments find synergy to complement one another instead of drown each one out. Ulrich helped us find that voice”, said Nefariant pianist Paul Cibrano.
