JULY 14, 2006 : NON PHIXION DISBANDS, MEMBERS TO PURSUE SOLO PROJECTS



After a successful, influential and critically acclaimed ten year

career, New York's underground hip hop staple Non Phixion has decided

the time has come to call it a day. Non Phixion released their first

single back in 1996 and never looked back. The next several years saw

the release of multiple Non Phixion 12" singles, but it was their 2002

full-length release "The Future Is Now", with its infectious beats and

raw uncut rhymes that finally put Non Phixion on the map as a force to

be reckoned with. Non Phixion soon developed a strong following in

the United States, Europe and Japan through word of mouth and

extensive touring. Then in 2004, Non Phixion released their highly

successful "The Green CD/DVD", solidifying their worldwide dedicated

fan base.



Unfortunately all good things come to an end. Within any group, team

or unit each individual must pull their own weight for that unit to

exist and prosper. After years of dealing with and

concealing Goretex's general unreliability and

total lack of interest in touring, writing and recording music with

Non Phixion, the rest of the group has reluctantly opted to bring it

to a dignified end in order to maintain the group's integrity.

Continuing on without any one member of this group would be bullshit.

With that being said, ILL BILL, Sabac Red & DJ Eclipse have decided to

focus on their solo efforts and projects. ILL BILL's Uncle Howie

Records has recently joined forces with Perfect Game Recording Co./

Warner Music Group to release ILL BILL's next solo album/DVD "The Hour of

Reprisal". The album will be released in early 2007 and follows up

ILL BILL's debut solo effort "What's Wrong With Bill?" which came out

in 2004. ILL BILL is also a member of a new group called La Coka

Nostra, which in addition to Bill features House of Pain alumni

Everlast, Danny Boy, and DJ Lethal, and newcomers Slaine & Big Left.

ILL BILL also has plans to release a "Live at CBGB's" DVD later this

year. Sabac Red is currently working on his next solo album and DVD

entitled "The Ritual" which will feature production by Necro, ILL

BILL, and others. This is the long awaited follow up to his 2004 solo

effort "Sabacolypse". 2007 will also see the release of DJ Eclipse's

"Halftime Show" DVD highlighting interviews and freestyles with guests

from his radio show which can be heard every Wednesday night on 89.1

WNYU from 10:30PM to 1AM in NYC or at www.wnyu.org. Both projects

will be released on Uncle Howie Records. And for all those bummed out

Non Phixion fans out there, the good news is that Bill, Sabac and

Eclipse will definitely continue to work closely together live in

concert and on future projects. Stay posted to www.unclehowie.com as

OFFICIAL NON PHIXION BIO



Before you start reading this bio, think about the words Non Phixion. Then think about the most real, bang you in the head with a sledgehammer-type moment you've ever experienced. Something that either hurt you or opened your eyes to reality. That's what Non Phixion are about. Read on.



The year was 1995. Somewhere in Brooklyn, NY, after years of spitting rhymes solo and crossing each others paths, four former advisaries buried the hatchet. They combined their talents and made history. ILL BILL, Goretex, Sabac and DJ Eclipse formed Non Phixion and jumped directly in the studio. Within six months, they released their debut single, "Legacy" b/w "No Tommorow", followed by an onslaught of critically acclaimed 12" singles that to date have sold over 200,000 copies combined.



From it's earliest stages, the group possessed it's own unique style that is best distilled to "b-boy gangster meets futuristic world of apocalypse". A complex blend of opposites is at the core of the Non Phixion sound. Not since Wu Tang's heyday has hip-hop witnessed such a display of unity and strength. Non Phixion has three distinct flows, three different voices and three different types of lyrical content, yet they all compliment each other in an impressive and powerful way.



After 2 years signed to Geffen Records yielded nothing, Non Phixion continued releasing music independently and began touring the world on their own. They've performed in all of NYC's major venues and done shows everywhere. Some of the places that have witnessed Non Phixion live include Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Las Vegas, Detroit, Philly, Miami, San Diego, Atlanta, Washington D.C., Toronto, Amsterdam, London, Barcelona, Madrid, Athens, Reykjavik, Oslo, Milan, Zurich, Geneva, Copenhagen and Berlin. Some of the groups they have shared the stage with include Gangstarr, Run DMC, Wu Tang Clan, Rage Against The Machine, Mos Def, Hazen St., Ludacris, Blackmoon, Pharoahe Monch, Big Pun and Fat Joe, Cypress Hill, Necro, Q-Unique, The Beatnuts, Jurassic 5, Lordz Of Brooklyn, Dead Prez & the Roots. Non Phixion have earned themselves a dedicated fanbase across the United States, Europe and Japan.



April 23, 2002: After solidifying a world-wide cult following and releasing countless 12" singles over the past 9 years, Uncle Howie Records finally released Non Phixion's highly anticipated debut LP, "The Future Is Now". Along with the assistance of legendary producers DJ Premier, Pete Rock and Large Professor, "The Future Is Now" features guest appearances from Beatnuts, MF Doom and the nefarious Necro. In Addition, rockers Christian Olde Wolbers & Raymond Herrera from Fear Factory and Deftones guitarist Steph Carpenter get down as well. Since it's release, the album has sound-scanned over 50,000 units in the US, and sold over 100,000 units worldwide.



As all 3 emcees in Non Phixion release solo albums thru Necro's Psycho+Logical Records, and begin collecting beats for "Nuclear Truth", their upcoming sophomore LP, Uncle Howie Records releases "The Green CD/DVD". Based on a promotional mix tape that Non Phixion recorded a few years prior to releasing their debut album "The Future Is Now", The Green CD consists of new and unreleased tracks as well as some older singles, demos and freestyles. 25 joints in all! Features production by Necro, Goretex, Domingo, V.I.C. & 10K. The Green DVD contains 2 hours of in-depth interviews with Non Phixion, tour footage, videos and live performances. Anything you could possibly want to know or see about Non Phixion is on This DVD! More to come.
