Review
When South Carolina thrash-metallers the Nothing realized they’d get more famous working at the post office than pumping out dense, headbangers-only noise, they adopted the grungier handle Crossfade and threw their Metallica riffs out with their spiked wristbands. Here, they infuse their songs with lunging, distorted guitars and pained vocals straight out of Creed, Puddle of Mudd and P.O.D.; they can rock hard, but syrupy, harmony-laden choruses derail any momentum. Then there are Ed Sloan’s lyrics, which read like the math-class scribbles of a pissed-off 12-year-old: “I am a part of a world that I hate/I wish the end would come faster, my world’s a disaster,” from “Starless.” He’s got his arms wide open, but no one’s going to hug back.
