Nothing Left is an American hardcore supergroup formed in 2016, primarily driven by brothers Brandon and Ryan Leitru following the dissolution of their previous band, For Today. While their earlier work was rooted in the melodic and spiritual side of metalcore, Nothing Left represents a pivot toward a grittier, more visceral hardcore sound.
The project was conceived as a return to the raw energy of the underground scene, characterized by a 'two-fisted' approach that emphasizes stripped-down arrangements and aggressive delivery. Their debut EP, 'Destroy and Rebuild', established this identity, which was further refined on their 2019 full-length 'Disconnected'. Critically, the band is noted for eschewing the over-produced tropes of modern metalcore in favor of a sound that feels live and dangerous. They occupy a cultural space between the Wilkes-Barre hardcore tradition and the more technical metallic hardcore of the late 2010s. Their influence web connects them to peers like Those Who Fear and Rival Choir, maintaining a reputation for high-intensity live performances and a uncompromising DIY ethic.
