Nefastus Dies is a black/death metal band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada.[1]

History

The band formed in 2002 and completed its final lineup in 2005.[1] Two months later, released their promo cd 'Prelude'. They then embarked on a promotional tour to support the recording in January 2006. In March 2006 they entered Yannick St-Amand's studio to record their first full-length album. They then signed with an underground label but quickly realised that this label did not have the proper resources to promote this album. .[citation needed]

In 2008, they released their first and only album Urban Cancer.[2] Allmusic rated it 2.5 stars.[3]

In early 2009 the band released a 2-song Promo EP entitled `Interlude` exclusively over the internet. Shortly after this, singer and main composer Seb Painchaud decided to leave the band.[citation needed]
