“I think these songs are really potent.”
Jonny Hawkins
No matter the existing strength, quality or back catalogue of a band – and regardless of their past successess – there is ALWAYS a defining moment in their career that makes what may or may not have come before seem trivial and insignificant. While that moment may come in a number of different forms, it is generally a groundbreaking performance or an album so good it defies even internal expectations.
That moment is here and now for US metal tyrants Nothing More, who celebrate the release of their latest – and quite possibly greatest – album yet with Carnal thIs Friday, June 28.
It is an album featuring not only a musical underbelly that highlights all the strengths and none of the weaknesses of Nothing More, but also features guest performances from a veritable who’s who of metal royalty including David Draiman (Disturbed) and Eric V (I Prevail) and a production team that have overseen bands such as Motionless In White, A Day To Remember, Limp Bizkit and Bring Me The Horizon.
Carnal is and will be that defining moment for Nothing More, with frontman Jonny Hawkins recently sitting down with HEAVY to tell us more, discussing the musicality of Carnal, the guest artists and why they were chosen, the temptation to rehash the winning formula of their previous album, collaborating with David Draiman, how Carnal came together, diversifying their music without separating themselves from their fanbase, the musical growth of the band and more.
