NOTHING by Kyle Hutchins

This is NOTHING—an album scraped together from bootleg recordings at Roanoke’s most beloved noise nest, Art Rat Studios. Equal parts beautiful disaster and holy mess, these tracks were captured in the wild: no soundchecks, no refunds, no apologies.

Art Rat is more than a venue—it’s a myth held together by duct tape, donated beer, and the unwavering belief that art should occasionally scare the neighbors.

We’re listing this album for $0 because money is fake, but every cent you choose to donate goes straight to keeping Art Rat alive and squealing. Support the chaos. Feed the Rat. Worship NOTHING.
