Episode description
Released on April 11th, 2025, via InsideOutMusic, ‘From Nothing’, is the highly anticipated sophomore album from experimental progressive metal band Benthos. An album that offers a profound reflection on the meaning of life while exploring positive and negative imprints left by mankind, and how they have shaped entire societies in various aspects - artistic, cultural, and social.
It is the follow-up to their exceptional 2021 debut, ‘II’, which we described as:
A thoughtful and grown-up take on progressive metal. A challenging listen, but one that left an impact and put the band on the progressive map.
This new album is something else entirely. Not from a challenging progressive standpoint, but rather the impact it will have. Benthos have poured years of experience, years of growth as individuals, and years of evolving as artists, into this new album, and it is incredible.
We spoke to the band in 2021, and so much has happened since, so we finally caught up, and in this interview, we discussed all aspects of Benthos with guitarists Gabriele Papagni and Enrico Tripodi. From the growth of the past few years, the vision for this record, the creative ups and downs, to the upward trajectory of success the band is experiencing, the desire to get out and play live, and so much more.
