History
[edit | edit source]Nothnegal was formed by guitarists Hilarl and Fufu in 2006.[7][8]
The band have explored themes of global warming centred around artificial intelligence. Their debut album Decadence tells a story that takes place in a future world that is consumed by water, which is controlled by artificial intelligence.[9] The story is presented in the lyrics in a screenplay format between the individual songs. The story parts link the lyrics of the songs together thematically.[7][8]
Nothnegal have been honored with a National Youth Award in the band's home country. The Maldives President Mohamed Waheed Hassan presented the National Youth Award 2012 to Nothnegal in the category of Performing Arts.[10]
