When Carl McCoy wanted to take Fields of the Nephilim in a new direction, the rest of the band disagreed. Thus, Carl formed the Nefilim while the rest of the band got a new vocalist in the form of Andy Delany and became Rubicon.

They release two albums and a number of singles before collapsing and news of a FoTN reformation. However, this failed to materialise and the Wright brothers are now in Last Rites, while Tony Petitt is NFD with Simon Rippin from the Nefilim/Sensorium and Peter 'Bob' White from Sensorium. Peter Yates guests on NFD's album.
