Throughout their career, New Jersey heavy outfit Fit For An Autopsy have remained stoic to their music and beliefs, following their own trends and passions rather than bow to the will of the masses.
As such, the band have developed a staunch and loyal fanbase, which, despite Fit For An Autopsy finding themselves thrust into the ears of a more mainstream market in recent years, have remained as passionate as ever. The band's 2022 album What The Future Holds saw Fit For An Autopsy somehow make small cracks in the chasm dividing metal and the general public, achieving the band's highest-charting position to date, becoming the first of their six full-length albums to reach the Top 25 of the Billboard 200.
Not that this had any effect or influence on Fit For An Autopsy when it came time to record the follow-up, with guitarist Will Putney joining HEAVY to explain where the new album plans to take us.
"It's a reflection on how I feel about the world," he began. "This record's no different in a sense to any of the previous ones in the place that it comes from. It probably gets a little more frustrated from album to album, but on the past few records I feel that Fit has sort of found itself, and we're comfortable in our own skin now. We know what we wanna do. We can play to our strengths. We're just refining the thing that we think is ours."
In the full interview, Will talks more about the musicality on The Nothing That Is, the singles released and how they reflect the rest of the album, listening to an album in its entirety rather than in bits and pieces, the success of What The Future Holds and the temptation to rehash the winning formula, producing the album himself and the advantages and disadvantages of keeping it in house, three songs to listen to in order to get to know Fit For An Autopsy and more.
