Noth - 2025 Interview

Every so often I stumble upon something.  Something that catches my by surprise.  Enter: Noth

I really cannot recall how I stumbled upon this demo.  It is only 2 songs but they have fed my cravings for techy, brutality full of creative riffs for months now.  Noth is an international project made up of two powerhouses: Baran from Türkiye, and Florent from Switzerland.  Together these two bring a crazy range of influences to pull from, some bands they are part of, to name a few; Twitch of The Death Nerve, Omnicidal Instinct, Cenotaph, Empyreuma, Kakothanasy, Burial Invocation, Poisoned Dream.  You get the idea. Learn more below!

Hello and thanks for answering some questions!  Can you tell us who is in Noth?

Just me (Baran) and Florent Duployer from Kakothanasy

What is the story of how the band started?

Ankara includes lots of Turkish BDM bands and hosts the culture since 1996.  Because it is a deep-rooted culture, I wanted to put another brick in the wall as a new generation musician. In this way, my close friends like Baha (Genorbit), Orkun (Desecrated Ubiquity), Erkin (Meshum and Molested Divinity), Batu and Cihan (Cenotaph) inspired the idea.

Inhomogeneities is crazy!!  What is the band's writing process like?

As a prog music and BDM enjoyer, I am influenced by many bands like Cephalic Carnage, Paroxysm Unit, Encenathrakh, Suffocation and Defeated Sanity also guitar masters like Guthrie Govan and Allan Holdsworth, guided me to progress my musical style. And I started to create the dual guitar riffs, basses and vocals. When the music took its form, I talked with Florent and he nailed the drums on the riffs.

Can we expect some new music soon?

We are planning a huge split with TRDM bands and of course full length Noth album will come.

What things, other than music, influence your art?

Death and rebirth cycle of nature. Astronomy, universal laws, philosophy and surrealist paintings. If you are a good enough observer, you can get inspiration from anything.

If you were stranded on an island, what 3 albums would you take with you?

Morbid Angel - Covenant

Gorguts - Obscura

Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon

and What 3 things (not music) would you take with you?

Nylon string guitar, bong and huge telescope. (I trust my surviving skills so I don't think there will be any problems.)

Thank you so much!  Anything you'd like to say to your fans?

Thank you for checking us out! Crazier riffs on the way, stay tuned.
