Quantum phase transitions in metallic magnets are a popular route to unconventional “non-Fermi” liquids. We describe an alternate route, starting from a non-magnetic, band insulator. Depending on the impurity used to induce metallicity, different levels of quantum fluctuations are introduced, and Fermi or non-Fermi-liquid behaviour is found.
