Post-Metal band NIKET began as a solo project in late 2019 by Nicholas Bonello. The name of the band NIKET refers to the melancholic sorrow one feels in different scenarios throughout life, something that is relatable to any listener. Throughout 2020 Nicholas has worked with other musicians who gave their input and musical talent to take the tracks to the next level, with Claudio Toscano on bass and Dave ‘Beast’ Fenech taking on more established roles in the project.
In early 2021 NIKET recorded and released their debut self-titled EP. In 2023 they had their live debut alongside drummer Alan Darmanin. NIKET are currently writing new music with goals to release in late 2024.
