Saturday, March 28 Nothing w/ Full Body 2, Cryogeyser, and VMO a.k.a. Violent Magic Orchestra at Grog ShopDoors 7 PM | Show 8 PMALL AGES$26.50 advance / $30 at the door+ $3 at the door if under 21Nothing have always been rule-breakers. Shoegaze renegades whove rebuilt thestereotypically lightweight genre in their own bloodyknuckled American image. Outlaw poets spilling existential dread on mile-wide canvasses of fuzz and reverb. Beginning as a Philly-born bedroom solo project in 2010, Nothings music has always captured the full scale of the human condition, both the blaring anger and the whispering sadness. A Short History of Decay, Nothings fifth solo album and first for Run For Cover Records, widens that aperture even further, providing the most hi-def rendering of Nothing to date. The band have never sounded this colossal, never felt this intimate, never been this honest.With the strongest arsenal in Nothings ever-shifting lineup locked in -- guitarist Doyle Martin (Cloakroom), bassist Bobb Bruno (Best Coast), drummer Zachary Jones (MSC, Manslaughter 777), and third guitarist Cam Smith (Ladder To God, also of Cloakroom) -- singer-songwriter Domenic Nicky Palermo knew he had the manpower to make the bands most ambitious record yet. Co-written and produced with Whirr guitarist Nicholas Bassett, and with additional production and mixing work from Sonny Diperri (DIIV, Julie), A Short History of Decay is the most evolved musical statement in Nothings catalog. Songs like Cannibal World and Toothless Coal are cataclysmic lashings of mechanized industrial-gaze that sound like My Bloody Valentine -- except more extreme.On the other end of the spectrum, the ornately morose Purple Strings boasts a beautiful string arrangement that includes harpist -- and two-time Nothing contributor - Mary Lattimore. That baroque delicacy permeates other A Short History of Decay highlights, particularly The Rain Dont Care, a lilting ballad that channels the worn down elegance of Mojave 3, and also Nerve Scales, a pattering bop that resembles Radiohead in its marriage of otherworldly atmosphere and mortal precision. Palermo calls the new record a final chapter. Not the end of Nothing, but the conclusion of a story that began with Nothings 2014 debut, Guilty of Everything -- another album about time, regret, and confronting uncomfortable truths -- and now resolves with A Short History of Decay. As much a snapshot of Palermos past as it is a leap into Nothings future.
