Matt Spatial explains: “I’m not anti-religion per se but I am very anti-abuse of religion, abuse of politics, or abuse of anything for that matter, when it’s (mis)used to manipulate, and/or harm others for some sort of personal gain as its end goal.”
The “Criminal Feature” video is a true story of ‘everything happens for a reason’ so Spatial explains: “I had commissioned a videographer to lead the charge on the video from concept to completion. I wasn’t in love with the concept they had presented to me but knowing that I had an EP to complete and only so many hours in a day, I apprehensively agreed. The videographer mysteriously ghosted me as I tried to get the ball rolling on the video, however, and I was left again to my own creativity to get it completed. The resulting video is something that I can now look at and feel quite thankful that I was gifted the opportunity to present my original vision for.”
“Criminal Feature” is taken from Now After Nothing’s debut EP “Artificial Ambivalence”, out September 13 on the band’s own label Living On Neptune(s). The EP will be available on all digital platforms and vinyl. “Artificial Ambivalence” was written and performed by Spatial along with drummer Michael Allen and also features additional guitar work by Mark Gemini Thwaite, who has played with Peter Murphy, The Mission, and Gary Numan.
