Spirit Of The Stairs - B-Sides & Rarities

by Nothing

supported by

Brendan Hobbs You can never have enough of Nothing. In isolation this sentence makes no sense. But in terms of noise, energy and passion then it makes perfect sense - and I can't get enough!

The B-sides are fantastic, the inclusion of the Vapour Trail cover is wonderful and the version of I Hate The Flowers is an absolute delight! Favorite track: Pattern After Us - DOTB B Side.

ltsfg CD would be best.

about

Philadelphia's critically-acclaimed NOTHING return with "Spirit Of The Stairs - B-Sides & Rarities", a collection of tracks spanning the band's career at the forefront of independent rock.

about

Nothing Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

People often wonder why Philadelphia's NOTHING are so damn loud. In the case of many artists, the volume stems from a preoccupation with negativity, misanthropy and the human condition, drawn from the band's own personal experiences. In the case of NOTHING, that volume, rather than a selling point, is the only way the band has been able to translate the difficulty of real-life into musical form. ... more

And HOW . . . as McFarlane usedta say. Best thing I did this Bandcamp Friday was try to pay back some really great Chaos. When your buddies are your family. And you each handle an instrument or two with elan. To wit, I'm sad as all twilight that I couldn't've partaken in these beautiful stubs of at least being given an opportunity to *actually support* the ones who grant you joie de vivre, before the drummer passed on. Well, here's to all the "spins" I can get these folks . . . 🦋💖 Richard Delgado
