The Use Of Nothing came together in summer 2003, initially known as NOTHING, and immediately began making a name for themselves on the local circuit. Their ferociously intense live shows gained them a reputation as a formidable act to follow, leading to a clutch of radio interviews and their first London appearance at the Garage in Highbury. The following eighteen months saw the band record a wealth of material, gig extensively and enjoy further radio exposure. In 2008, the band became The Use Of Nothing and joined forces with Up The Ante! Records. RICHARD BEGGAR, 2008.
