Origin

Padraig created the idea of Nimheil as a means to give sonic shape to the ideas that he was creating in his fictional writing, and seeing in nightly dreams. The resulting sound that came from this expression of writing is best described as 'industrialized dark ambient littered with fragments of noise'.

For the matter of course, Nimheil is pronounce 'neev-ayl'. It is a Gaidhlig word.


Legion of Nimheil

As of July 2005, I am creating a collective concept that I am going to call 'Legion of Nimheil'. This is a mailing list for fans of the musical project Nimheil.

How to join

Membership is easy. you join the mailing list.

The mailing list is found at: groups.yahoo.com/group/legion_of_nimheil...

There is no monetary cost to signing up.

Bonus Points

Bonus points will be awarded if you can take a photo of yourself somewhere dark and moody (a place where the music of Nimheil would suit being played) with the Nimheil sigil, or with the flyer in your hands. This bonus points will swell and surge if your picture has occult or gaelic spiritual significance or includes flesh and blood.

Additional bonus bonus will be granted if you can convert more people to listening to Nimheil (easily done by pointing them at the website).

Requests for bonus points (i.e: sending photos or such like) can be made via mailto:padraig@nimheil.org.

What does joining Legion provide

Legion will have their names added to a roll-of-honour on the Nimheil website (using any name you choose). Links to website will be happily included. Those with the most bonus points will be moved to the top of the list.

Any new projects will be announced on the mailing list. So Legion get to learn about new stuff before anyone else.

And at such point that Nimheil sells new items such as album releases, other merchandise or souls, Legion will get free bonus items with any purchase, which may include stickers, badges, hand signed artworks or anything else Padraig / Nimheil comes up with.

Privacy

The mailing list will remain privately accessable to members only. The email addresses on it will not be sold by Nimheil for any purpose. Although that said, Yahoo! may or may not choose to do such things but that is beyond the control of Nimheil.

The list may also be used to occasionally advertise certain events that may be particularily interesting to those people that like Nimheil's style of music, but that will not be common. And now and again Nimheil's label 'Uncomfortable Records' may post about new projects to the list.

Internal Efforts

Originally the album 'Entropic // Ramblings' was to be released as a CD sometime in 2004 or 2005. However, due to some hardware failures this wont be happening. However, the rescued data was of high enough quality so that 'E // R' will be released as ultra-limited release tape that will include a bonus track that will never appear online and will also include hand-finished artwork on the liner notes. Only twenty-three will be made.


Once the work on the 'E // R' tape is done, Nimheil will continue writing music and work towards releasing the second album 'Comtemplation' as soon as possible. So far the music on it is looking to be darker than anything on 'E // R' and is far less beat driven.

20050201: The 'Entropic // Ramblings' tape has been released and seems to have had a positive reception. Photos of the creation process can be found www.nimheil.org/entropic_ramblings.shtml


External Efforts

Recently Nimheil has created a remix for a melbourne based Industrial / EBM band called Fate Aeffect. This EP is hopefully being released soon to prelude their upcoming album.

Nimheil is also in discussion with one or two other bands to produce remixes of their work for release on up coming albums and singles.

A number of tracks have been written for a Various Artists album that is being collated by Random Insults (USA) to be released on Roil Noise based around the theme of mental illness. Additionally a number of tracks have been submitted and accepted for release on some privately-funded CDR label releases.
