Year of No Light
Year Of No Light (often abbreviated as YONL) is a French post-metal band from Bordeaux formed in 2001. For their début album, Nord, YONL drew influence from several genres, including post-rock, sludge, somber psychedelics and depressive atmospheric shoegaze. The second album, Ausserwelt, was not released until 2010 after a significant line-up change in 2008 which established the band as an instrumental sextet, including two drummers and three guitarists. Ausserwelt saw the band's sound develop in the direction of black metal and doom metal while retaining a progressive, post rock feel.
History
Year of No Light was founded in September 2001 in Bordeaux, France by Johan Sébenne, Bertrand Sébenne, Jérôme Alban and Christophe Mora (Finger Print, Undone,...). Since its conception, Year Of No Light was never a "top priority" band but rather an instrumental side project. After one year of rehearsal, Christophe Mora left the band. Pierre Anouilh succeeded him. One month later, the band played live for the first time.

Year Of No Light
I stopped believing whats inside of me
I was set on taking everything and making waves destroying the day
The world around went dark I saw it disappear as the colors turned gray
Oh oh oh oh
I'll play the devil
You can be the light
You can save me from the sea
Where I'll be the devil
You can play the light
They took the best of us and sent it on
No we search to fill that void
The world around was dark I saw the light appear just as I turned my head
The waves
The waves
Can you stand the waves
Cause you know I'll be gone so long
I've been living with your devil too long and I've been living with these eyes closed
The world around was dark I saw
I was floating in the salt and sun for a year
Starting to fade I felt you pull me aboard
I opened my eyes to see the world I'd left behind
