US Alternative/Progressive Rock band Great Wide Nothing released the single “Brain Of Fire” taken from upcoming new album “A Shout Into The Void” due out on May 02, 2025 via Astronomy Recording Music. Stream the track through the Spotify player below:
Self-recorded in the band’s secluded makeshift basement studio in North Georgia, relying heavily on live takes and a decidedly more minimalist approach to production, while also featuring their most explosive, yet focused and compelling compositions and performances to date,
Great Wide Nothing’s fourth album, “A Shout Into The Void” sees the Atlanta-based trio reach a critical and exciting point in their nearly decade-long evolution; a point at which they’re not only clearly at the top of their game as a creative unit, but, one can only conclude, more confident and comfortable with who they are and what they’re about as artists than ever before.
Put quite simply, “A Shout Into The Void” is the sound of one of the independent music scene’s most inimitably unique groups coming into their own and declaring that they have nothing to prove and everything to say.
Boasting a sound that’s refreshingly intimate and raw, but which sacrifices none of Great Wide Nothing’s trademark technical prowess and keyboard-based bombast, “A Shout Into The Void” fully realizes, at long last, a stylistic synthesis long hinted at in their prior work – the seamless melding of old school Prog Rock with the Punk/Alternative Sounds prevalent in the sort of underground spaces, communities, and subcultures where they have cut their teeth and carved out their unique niche over the years.
It’s a record that is sure to satisfy and intrigue any and all who hear it; a work bursting with frenetic energy, emotional power, thematic and topical relevance, and unmistakable authenticity.
