Nothing have announced the 10th-anniversary edition of their influential debut album, Guilty of Everything, which was crowned D//E Album of the Year in 2014. As part of the deluxe edition bonus seven-inch, the band has unveiled a previously unreleased and emotionally evocative recording from 2015, a rendition of Big Star's Holocaust. The accompanying video for this track has been directed by Clara Griot.
Nothing's Domenic Palermo describes: "We wrote and recorded this track right before I almost got killed in Oakland. We were out on tour with Cloakroom and Tony Molina, so before Doyle joined Nothing. I forgot it existed until a couple years ago while demoing with Nick out in Oakland for The Great Dismal. Hard to imagine a more crushing piece of music than the Alex Chilton original, but looking back and how things progressed following the recording, this version feels really heavy to me. Looking back, it's almost like an eerie premonition of how quickly things can turn devastating.”
Additionally, the release features Nothing's cover of Concrete Blonde's Joey. The new version of the album comes out on March 8th, 2024 through Relapse Records.
