Their first album, Genesis, was released in 2002. It is a suite divided in several parts, from the Big Bang to the birth of man, as a symbolic representation of the creation of the universe, based on ancient Tibetan and Mayan religions.

It is a symbolic expression of a spiritual search, from Consciousness to Illumination, inspired by a book by Lama Anagarika Govinda.

Detailed biographies: 1) Nebula is a psychedelic stoner rock band. It all started when Eddie and friend Neil Blender were making weird 4 track music for skate movies like Alien Workshop's first video. He then went on to drum for Olivelawn and later on played guitar with Fu Manchu, writing some of the songs and playing lead guitar on the first three albums. In 1997 Eddie Glass and Ruben Romano decided it was time to use the whole arsenal - Guitars, Drums, Moogs, Sitars, psychedelics and formed Nebula. Tom crossed the pond in the summer of 2004 to join the Nebula ranks. With the recent addition in early 2007 of Rob Oswald, (Karma To Burn/Mondo Generator), Nebula are re-igniting the fires started in '97. Five albums later - one on Relapse, two on Sub Pop, a couple of EP's on Meteor City and now the long gone Mans Ruin and a long list of records with Cargo/Sweet Nothing, Nebula continues it's long ties with the extreme sports community, featured regularly in soundtracks to movies, TV shows like Viva la Bam and Monster Garage and on video games including Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, Tony Hawk's Underground 2 and NHL 2007. After appearances at the X-Games, Los Angeles' Sunset Junction Festival and numerous tours in Europe, Australia, Japan, South America and many North American tours with the likes of Mudhoney, J Mascis & The Fog and The Hellacopters, Nebula have recently returned from a month long festival tour in Europe.
