BIOGRAPHY
The band was formed by the two members (Konstantin Timofeev, Alexander Ivanov) of the black metal band Omen after its split-up. Nox Doloris started out as a synth-based sympho/gothic/industrial metal band, but became symphonic death/black metal after a few demos.
History of Nox Doloris begins in 2010, when gathered band published the first Internet release. The basis of the music had become relevant at the time electro- synthetic sound with symphonic component. In the same year the team started to play on stage.
In 2011 Nox Doloris headed for a darker and heavier sound and assumed the rank of sympho death metal formation. Second online release (EP) Sacrifice me, got great replies on thematic resources . The band had played a series of gigs in St. Petersburg.
2012 was opened by the release of the EP Purgatory on the Firstborn Chaos Productions label. The team took part on the iconic Moscow Festival Black Mass with the luminaries of Russian Black Metal scene, and also opened the Autumn Metal Season in St. Petersburg.
2013 was marked by great concert activities of the band. Nox Doloris presented a spectacular show at Walpurgis Night Stoker Night Club, played at the legendary Metal Spirit Ressurection with the best metal bands of Russia, and closed metal season on a big fest in Arctica Night Club.
In August the first long play album Possession had been released on the GRAILIGHT Productions label. Album collected positive reviews from fans and critics.

In November Nox Doloris made a big presentation of the album with the support of such Russian legends of Sympho Black, as Sinful, Blackthorn and Arcanorum Astrum.
Now the band has a strong concert program and is ready to cooperate with promoters. It plans to record a second album, shoot a video, and to get access on the European countries and festivals.
Nox Doloris – it’s a new level of sympho black metal. Great orchestrations, powerful choruses, fat sound combined with a charismatic performance - it all puts the group on a par with the best European representatives of the genre.
