Nothing (band)
Nothing is an American shoegaze band formed in 2010 by vocalist-guitarist Domenic "Nicky" Palermo. The band has had a revolving lineup throughout its career, with Palermo being the longest-serving member following the departure of guitarist-vocalist Brandon Setta in 2019. Setta joined in late 2010 and shared songwriting duties with Palermo throughout his tenure.
Nothing self-released several EPs before signing to Relapse Records. They released their debut studio album, Guilty of Everything, in 2014. The follow-up album, Tired of Tomorrow, was released on in 2016. Nothing's third studio album, Dance on the Blacktop, was released in 2018, their fourth studio album, The Great Dismal, was released in 2020, and their fifth studio album, A Short History Of Decay, was released in 2026.
Nothing founder Domenic "Nicky" Palermo was previously a member of the hardcore punk band Horror Show. The short-lived band only released a pair of EPs through Jacob Bannon of Converge's Deathwish Inc. label during its existence. Horror Show was put on hold in 2002 when a 20-year old Palermo stabbed a man during a fight between two rival gangs and spent two years in jail for aggravated assault and attempted murder; Palermo claimed self-defense. Of this period in his life, Palermo said: "It was kind of a violent time. We were going to shows and kind of, like, fucking shit up for the whole [hardcore] scene". He also performed in XO Skeletons, which featured Wesley Eisold (Give Up the Ghost, Cold Cave).
Following his stint in jail and done with performing in punk bands, Palermo spent a long time soul-searching. He has said, "I didn't know what else to do with my life, what would make me want to wake up every day. I really struggled with that for like four years and, not to sound dramatic or anything, but I thought about blowing my brains out every day". Palermo eventually began making music again, and released a demo, Poshlost, under the name "Nothing" in 2010. Nothing went through several lineup changes over the next few years while releasing two EPs, Suns and Lovers and Downward Years to Come between 2011 and 2012, respectively.
In 2013 Nothing signed to Relapse Records and released the single "Dig", which featured on the band's debut album, Guilty of Everything, released by Relapse on March 4, 2014. To continue promotion for the album, Nothing also released the tracks "Endlessly" and "Bent Nail" for online streaming, and in 2014 it reissued Downward Years to Come.
In August 2013 Nothing toured with Whirr, and as a result, members of Nothing and Whirr formed a side project called Death of Lovers. The two bands also released a split EP in 2014, and Whirr member Nick Bassett (ex-Deafheaven) joined Nothing on bass.
Nothing then signed to Collect Records, but terminated its contract with the label after completing their new record, due to the label's ties to former Turing Pharmaceuticals CEO Martin Shkreli. On December 8, 2015, it was announced that Nothing had re-signed with Relapse Records. Its second album, Tired of Tomorrow, was released on May 13, 2016. The first single from the album, "Vertigo Flowers", debuted on February 23, 2016. John "PBoy" Policastro from the band New Lows joined the band as a live bassist to tour for the record, as Bassett was not able to do all the dates.
The band's third studio album, Dance on the Blacktop, was released on August 24, 2018, by Relapse. It was preceded by the "Zero Day" single on June 4.
