Nominon Going On Indefinite Hiatus

Long-running Swedish death metal band Nominon has officially been put on hold for the foreseeable future, with no plans on the horizon for writing or touring. The band comments:

"One foot in the grave... After some members of the band had a meeting last night at the headquarter's in Jönköping, Sweden, we have come to a decision to clean out the rehearsal place and move out of there. Simply since the band is not that active at this point, and hasn't been since the In Flammen festival show in Germany during July.

"This might not mean that the band Nominon is officially dead or what-so-ever, yet it is the first time in the band's 23 year history that we are not having any specific place to meet up and write / work on music together.

"Some of you out there might wonder, why are you guys doing this now and what will happen next etc?! Well, to be honest, none of us really know what'll happen? But one thing worth mentioning is that the members do live approximately 500 km from each other, and most of the guys in the band doesn't prioritize to play music. So it's not that easy to always keep our heads high and just continue like nothing has changed over the years, especially on a more personal level. Weirdly enough people tend to get older, and with age comes changes, naturally.

"With that being said, no one know what's in the crystal ball? Yet material has been written over the last couple of years that are still unreleased, and further songs will be written and recorded somewhere and somehow during the next couple of 2 years or so. But as mentioned, at this point the band is not active on many levels and therefore one can say that we are 'on hold.' We won't be playing any shows during 2016 as things are looking right now, it's just fact.

"We have been offered to participate on several split 7" EP's, compilation / tribute albums etc etc, but we are not interested to do that at all, so sorry for letting you guys down, but we're not here to satisfy any one else but ourselves at the end of the day. Our next release will be the long-awaited vinyl version of the debut album 'Diabolical Bloodshed' on To The Death Rds, to be out in Jan/Feb 2016. There'll also be a full-length live cassette release on a Spaniac label most likely in February, including a brutal and intense recording of Nominon on fire at the 2015 edition of Death Kills Festival, Stockholm, Sweden. More info to follow on that soon.
