NYMPHOLEPSY
Nympholepsy was formed in early 1999. Naxzgul, founding member and also front man of Nympholepsy, had Wan and Amy in the band. Wan on the drums and Amy on the bass guitar. Over time, Wan and Amy simply lost interest in the band due to commitment to their full-time careers and the passion for Death-metal no longer existed in their hearts. These withdrawals left Naxzgul stranded on releasing the band`s demo. Time passes but still Naxzgul could not find anyone suitable for the abandoned posts. It was not until mid-June 2002 that Naxzgul found a bassist, Shamshoor. Greatly influenced by Grindcore and Brutal Death-metal, Shamshoor had no problems delivering Naxzgul's extreme appetite.
For months, Naxzgul and Shamshoor searched for a drummer but to no avail. A year had passed, the search and determination in both Naxzgul and Shamshoor were slowly fading away. Then, sometime in early October 2003, Naxzgul met Ibrahim, drummer and the founder of Virulency. Naxzgul offered Ibrahim to purgatorize for Nympholepsy but Ibrahim was not convinced by Naxzgul`s proposal. Naxzgul decided to have a jamming session with Ibrahim and with that single session, was enough to draw Ibrahim to acquiesce with Naxzgul's morbid visions. So the gathering was finalized. Naxzgul on guitars and vocals, Shamshoor on bass and Ibrahim on drums.
It did not take long for Naxzgul and Nympholepsy to come up with ideas and structures for their first promo/demo. After 3 months of intensive jamming, Nympholepsy was ready for action. A promo/demo with two tracks was officially recorded on 22nd May 2004. Two tracks titled Psycho`s Dream and Sophisticated Rage were recorded for Beyond Comprehension. The first 60 limited copies of CDs were officially released on September 6, 2004.
But, Naxzgul felt that something was still missing. He needed another guitarist to effectuate the consolidation of brutality. Sometime in late November 2004, he convinced Ahmad, guitarist of Virulency, to collaborate with Nympholepsy. At last, Nympholepsy was complete.
Nympholepsy performed with a full line-up on December 18, 2004 at Beat Merchants in front of a small but energetic audience with bands such as Flesh Disgorged, Septikaemia and CFC.
Soon after, Nympholepsy headlined and ripped through their set at Zombie Rock Bar for the Extreme Terror gig alongside Chrysalids, Sil-Khannaz, Impiety and others on January 8, 2005.
Currently, Nympholepsy is working on material for a full-length album. Expect more crushing riffs and devastating drumworks from them soon!
