The fifth and final single to be released from their acclaimed This Is What Honesty Sounds Like EP Nothing… is a slow-burning anthemic emo tinged alt-rock song that takes Catholic Guilt’s signature emotional intensity and storytelling nous and blends it with their evolving musicality, creating a haunting soundscape that serves as powerful accompaniment to vocalist Brenton’s emotional outpouring of grief.
Produced by Ash Daws and Evan Lee at The Loud Noise Estate, a sorrowful guitar and vocal opening sets the scene, before the pre-chorus lifts the mood and the band powers into a chorus that bursts to life with thunderous rhythms, an inspired twin-guitar dynamic and soaring harmony soaked vocals. After a prog-inspired bridge makes way for an extended outro featuring layered guitars, a three vocal interplay from Brenton, Dean and Bryce, a sweeping guitar solo, mammoth bass tone, synths and thumping drums, before dropping away to a gorgeous acapella vocal ending, the emotional journey will leaves you with all of those happy/sad feels.
Lyrically a reflection on the passing of an influential loved one, Nothing… is the sound of a human encountering cycles of grief as they move through day-to-day life, finding both despair and hope in memories of a life lived and lost.
