60. Nomy - Song or Suicide 

Nomy is a one-man band and the most of his music comes from his computer. It's a way that gives the artist complete freedom and maximum control of his works. All Nomy's songs are based on feelings, experiences and general thoughts about the world and it's inhabitants. This is what makes it understandable how the songs can go from an easygoing ballad to hard metal - the music doesn't follow the generic standards but follows Nomy's thoughts and feelings, creating the 'Nomy sound'.
