Mostly Nothing are back with their new EP “Somewhere Else”. Following the release of the singles “Supernova” and “Into Nonexistence”, the one-many-army band continues their creative journey through time, space and an endless quest to self-understanding, which culminates in a genre-defying set of songs ranging from classical to heavy metal.
Inspired by the likes of Haken, David Maxim Micic, Plini or Native Construct, Mostly Nothing present an exciting novel strand of instrumental sound, created in the musical laboratory of Portuguese multi-instrumentalist and composer Sérgio Castro, who performed, mixed and mastered all the music in the EP (except for the drums in “Into Nonexistence”, played by Daniel Rodrigues).
The artist behind Mostly Nothing describes his music as an attempt at mixing the ideas and philosophy of modern progressive metal and rock music with his background as a classically trained musician. In his own words – “I tried my best to annoy easygoing listeners with random heaviness and metalheads with pretty lullabies”. Whereas the first two albums — “Dark ~ Light” and their debut “Short Stories” — were largely born out of experimentation, “Somewhere Else” came into being after three months of carefully composing and arranging work, and displays full control of the voices that revealed themselves in past works.
“Somewhere Else” was recorded between 2022 and 2023, at the artist’s bedroom studio in his hometown of Guimarães, in Portugal. The EP was released on all major platforms in March. To stay updated on further releases, stay tuned to Mostly Nothing’s Facebook and Instagram pages.
