Breaking the year long silence since their acclaimed self-titled debut album, up and coming Phoenix AZ based industrial punkers There Is No Us release their first – and only – new music of 2025 on Halloween day.

Fronted by vocalist Jim Louvau (already renowned as an award-winning rock photographer) and multi-instrumentalist Andy Gerold (Marilyn Manson), There Is No Us launched back in 2015 with the There Is No Humanity EP, since when a steady stream of fresh releases, and sharp political commentary has seen the band stockpiling critical acclaim.

“[A] fiery industrial-metal band” – Revolver

“Jim Louvau really doesn’t give us any time to breathe, with non-stop screams, sounding metalcore at times… all tracks have their strong points with the endless guitar solos and riffs” – Heavymag.au

“Their live show truly is essential. Some bands don’t require any spectacle, and There Is No Us is clearly not one of those outfits.” – Phoenix New Times

Now comes “Fragments,” a thunderous collaboration with 8mm, the dynamite duo of Juliette Beaven and legendary producer Sean Beaven (Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, A Perfect Circle), and perhaps There Is No Us’s most attack-minded, assaultive release yet.

“We’ve been working with Sean for many years now,” says Jim, “and typically any new music we release goes through him to get his feedback, whether it’s in its infant stages or when we think something is done.  So working with him and Juliette on a track seemed like a natural fit.”

He continues, however, “This song also has some elements that are a little bit out of our typical wheelhouse, by touching on a bit of a trip hop vibe that is seductive and almost inviting thanks to Juliette’s voice, before we bring our signature brand of aggression.”

It’s certainly going to turn up the volume on your Halloween plans… and if you want more (and you will), There Is No Us are headlining Hollywood’s Bar Sinister tomorrow, November 1.

As Jim says, “Some of our favorite shows we’ve ever played have taken place there and if you’ve seen us play there you know why. So don’t take off your Halloween makeup from the night before and come GET FK’D.”
