Nothing More have unleashed an epic, long-awaited cover of Nine Inch Nails’ We’re In This Together.

Apparently in the works for over a decade, the alt.metallers – Jonny Hawkins (vocals), Mark Vollelunga (guitar), Daniel Oliver (bass) and Ben Anderson (drums) – have finally been able to complete their rendition and pay tribute to Trent Reznor and co.

“We’re In This Together sounds like a love song colliding with a war cry,” notes Jonny. “Alan Watts once said that ‘you are the universe experiencing itself’ – and this song embodies that truth. It’s us against the world, and this song is my inner monologue.”

“This song is from my favourite Nine Inch Nails’ album, The Fragile, and by far one of my favourite NIN songs,” continues Mark. “It’s such a beautiful cataclysm. Essentially, it’s a love song, but as I dove deeper, my interpretation shifted to it being about my relationship to my personal demons and mental trauma. It’s about making peace with those monsters and accepting who and what they are while realising they will always be a part of me. It took a long time to achieve that cathartic clarity in regard to the very real nature of that evil’s presence.

“We actually started recording the song 11 years ago, and it’s just been lying in wait until recently. I was upset we hadn’t released it earlier, but I now believe its relevance and timing couldn’t be more immaculate.”
