Join DJ Emo King on Wednesday, November 14th @ 2:30PM when he airs his recent interview with Philadelphia shoegaze band, Nothing.
Nothing’s third release, Dance On The Blacktop, pulls from all corners of life in its contents. Stories of self loathing, self destruction, and a general disdain for humanity and its, “insignificant” role in frontman Domenic Palermo’s vision of the universe are met with his poised amusement and tranquil hysteria being one himself.
All of this told through the eyes of a recently diagnosed Palermo suggesting he is dealing with the early stages of CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy), a neurodegenerative disease found in people with serious head injuries. And as they packed themselves in a coffin-sized NYC apartment for 23 days to demo songs it became clear that the ripple effect left upon his psyche from dealing with these newfound symptoms would leave its mark on the material.
