Nox started as a trio in th early 80's, made a lot of performance with bands like Sprung Aus den Wolken and Einstürzende Neubauten . Their heavy tribal percussions, hypnotic guitars and war chants just push them as the right link between industrial and hardcore. Besides Nox, each member manages his own career into different areas: Cecile Babiole is a movie director ("Menagerie", "Xons"), Gerome acts as producer ( Garbage Collector , Laurent Pernice ) and musician under Gerome Nox & G-Nox, Laurent Perrier is a label manager (Odd Size), and Laurent Pernice is a solo musician.

With his new project G-Nox, Gerome Nox explores a new side of his personnality, we dive into a cold universe without any concession, a schizophrenic world taht can leaves you unhurt, the soundscapes are strong and deep. "Ventre" is an immersion into new ambient and ryhtmic industrial fields
