Nílim

Uncoiling CS

(Tapes Of Wrath, a SuperFi subsidiary)



Consisting of only guitar, drum machine, and vocals, Nílim is a solo project of John Quill (Third Island, Ordinator, Karpackonaut & more), based in Limerick, IE.

Nílim is intently slow and punishing, designed for a single purpose of weight and repetition. Using a stripped back and simplistic approach, Nílim performs a form of industrial sludge, with doom, post-metal, and shoegaze elements.

Nílim - "I am not", literally - takes a musical approach that leans towards oppressive and bleak by design, but contrasts itself with moments of space and clarity within its own stylistic boundaries. Nílim has a DIY ethos in all elements, from music to art to online presence, aesthetically and creatively.

2025 Saw the release of both an eponymous demo and an EP, Uncoiling. Both of these are now combined for a tape release via Tapes of Wrath. Including a b-side "In Futures" as an extra, this tape serves as the definitive physical version of the first year's work on the project.

50 tapes are coming out April 2026.
