COMING EVENTS
MICK MERCER INTERVIEWS BOB ABOUT ALL THINGS NFD
NFD IN THE STUDIO FEATURE + NFD VINYL PAST & FUTURE FEATURE
WE ARE LAUNCHING SOMETHING NEW THIS JUNE
This month ushers in something new for NFD fans. Starting this June on our fledgling YouTube channel Bob will start hosting videos dealing with all things NFD. The first of which will be a 3 part collection unboxing the amazing 'Requiems From The Abyss' release. As well as those of you that have not got this fantastic release yet being able to get a good look at what is included, Bob will give a few insights as to how it was put together and maybe a few secret nuggets of rare information. You will have to wait and see!
Expect the first episode between now and June 17th which happens to be the RFTA worldwide release date by Jungle Records and also Bobs birthday!
To make sure you don't miss it head over to YouTube and be one of the first to subscribe!
Our Italian team drummed up a massive success this weekend! The power house of NFD’s rhythm section Luca Mazzucconi laid down the drums for the lead track of our next release and also some demo drums for next years album! If you don’t know by now I consider Luca NFD’s secret weapon! His skills are off the chart!
At the helm for recording was Francesco Matano (left) master of ceremonies at Musicaperilcervello Studios. He did a killer job of capturing the insane energy and skill that Luca was unleashing! The main track, which is heavily driven by cyclical tom pattern was sounding mind-blowing on the 6 minute version and even more so on the extended 8 minute version! Outstanding work from both of them! Special thanks to Roberto Pina for helping out with extra mics! We had 8 on the toms alone!
The amazing Sarah Locatelli and Kevin Riva were on video and Camera duties. A big thanks to both of them! You might recognize Sarah from some of our merch pictures! This is her second time helping us out and I am hoping she will become a regular part fo the team moving forward.
Once everything has arrived in the Mojave I will start finalizing the rest of the recording and then begin the mixing. Expect some video clips and a bit of an article on this session at our website soon!
NFD TEAM ITALIA
BOXSET NOW IN STOCK
SHIPPING NOW!
We rejoice in the fact that RFTA will finally start shipping this week and can’t wait for your reaction to receiving it in all its Gothtastic, over the top NFD glory!
For those of you that have not ordered yet please know that any future pressings may be in a reduced format such as a Digipak with no postcards or poster or limited edition badge and a smaller booklet. So if you want one of these beauties do not leave it for ever to order one, we made a big order but once they are gone they are gone.
Because we know people are having a hard time with rising living expenses we are holding the preorder pricing for as long as we can.
SO LET IT BEGIN...
This weekend I have been prepping stems for Luca to rehearse with for the first of his recording session in Italy this May! We are having to embrace the new world order like everyone else and move forward what ever way we can! This is for a release we are doing our best to get out by the end of the year!
I also revived my copy of Procession this weekend which contains 4 pages of NFD with yours truly rambling on about my musical path from 3 years old onwards and lots of other NFD bits and Bobs! This is a fantastic relatively new magazine driven by a dedicated and passionate group of people and the NFD mob are proud to be part of their growing community! Use the link below to go get yourself a copy of issue 6 and you can order back issues also!

NEW NFD YOUTUBE CHANNEL
The march forward continues towards getting NFD back up and running as a live unit, and releasing new material. One of the next steps in this path is the creation of a dedicated YouTube channel. Older music videos will still be hosted at the channel of the mighty Jungle Records but any future content will now be hosted on our own channel.
Although currently sparsely populated we will begin in a few weeks to upload some live performances that have until now been only on our Facebook site, then as the year progresses new content will be added.
This content will likely include some interviews, Q&A's and behind the scenes content the we have previously not ventured into. There are lots of exciting possibilities.
For now we would love it if you took the time to subscribe to out new channel so you are ready to go as new Gothic Goodness arrives.
Featuring a fantastic alternative ‘Requiems From The Abyss’ design on the front and a new arcane NFD sigil on the back. Expect to see variations of this sigil appearing regularly throughout this year and beyond.
As well as T-Shirts there are Long-Sleeves and Hoodies, the latter two garments feature a spellbinding additional design on printed both sleeves.
Preorder is now over and they are in production. Order yours now and it will be sent out around Mid April.

PHYSICAL BOXSET UPDATE
PHYSICAL BOXSET UPDATE
A small consolation was that we were able to unleashed the digital copy to everyone that preordered on December 24th so they had could blast it out over the holidays!
A BIG thank you to everyone that sent us messages telling us how much they were enjoying it! A lot of praise for this Boxset is deserved by Ed Shorrock, our head honcho at NFD Towers who was fundamental in bringing this release into being and the magician of mastering Gordon Young who was tested to the max, forging 20 years worth of diverse material into one Abyssal Beast! He did an incredible job!
If you have preordered the R.F.T.A. boxset then please check your email. You have been sent a message fully updating you on where we are and what has been going on. The special link in the email will take you to all the important information.
If you can't see your email, please do check your junk/spam folder. It will be from contact@nfdworld.co.uk

Requiems From The Abyss is a 3CD Box celebrating 20 years of NFD's history. The boxset includes 3CDs packed full of fully remastered versions and edits of existing releases, promos and never-before released tracks. Included in the package is a 24 page full colour booklet with an introduction written by Bob and edited by the legendary Mick Mercer and contains many never before seen photos. Also included is a fold out poster and 5 postcards detailed with the imagery that drives the band forward.
The pre-order of the physical CD boxsets is priced at £25, which will rise to £30 after the end of the pre-order period. The first 125 orders (direct from the band on Bandcamp) had a super rare promo CD of 'When The Sun Dies', only sent out to magazines and radio stations back in the day added to their package. The first 500 orders had a limited edition art flyer signed by Bob added to their package.
Although all these have now been claimed everyone ordering from the band will receive a limited edition metal badge only available with the physical boxset.
