History

We built upward because we had forgotten what the ground looked like. We called it progress. We gave it names, numbers, quarterly reports. Somewhere along the way, the sky disappeared behind glass and exhaust. We didn't notice. We were busy.

The forests didn't die all at once. They were replaced - quietly, methodically - by something that almost looked like them if you squinted hard enough. Towers in rows. Steel branches. A canopy of smoke. And at their feet, the slow rot of everything we once called innovation, rusting in its own obsolescence. We called that progress too.

Now the mist is all that's left. It clings to everything. It smells like nothing and everything at once. You breathe it in and you don't cough - not anymore. You've adapted. That's the most disturbing part.
Nebula Silva was born in this mist. Not as an answer. Not as a protest. Just as an observation - cold, unwavering - that the world we built is exactly the one we deserved.

Origin

Nebula Silva emerges in 2018 in Valais, Switzerland.

Slordef (guitar) and Nøname (vocals, bass) already share the stage within Vaalnor, a pagan/folk metal band. But something else pulls them downward - a need for something darker, rawer. A separate project, carved from the black.

Atmospheric Black Metal turned toward civilizational decay and existential dead ends.

The duo operates with sampled drums and programmed textures. The format serves the vision.

Influences

Musically, Nebula Silva draws from the cutting cold of Mgła and Groza, the atmospheric depth of Der Weg Einer Freiheit, the ritual intensity of Batushka and Behemoth, the epic grandeur of Summoning, and the raw legacy of Satyricon.
