New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Three-time Grammy-nominated, San Antonio-based rock outfit NOTHING MORE have added an extra element to their upcoming album SPIRITS, due October 14 via BETTER NOISE MUSIC with their very own "SPIRITS TEST." Developed over recent years by front man JONNY HAWKINS, the SPIRITS TEST combines what's been learned from similar personality tests including Myers-Briggs, The Big 5, Carl Jung and the Zodiac.
Throughout 25 questions, the SPIRITS TEST measures psychometrics of your dominant modes and perceptions to determine your "SPIRIT TYPE." Each SPIRIT TYPE has its own personality description with correlating elements, paths and perceptions as well as symbolic characters which the band have revealed across recent releases. The SPIRITS TEST artwork (as seen below) was illustrated by Micah Ulrich (Lacuna Coil, Chelsea Grin, Post Malone). Watch the below video for an introduction to the SPIRITS TEST from HAWKINS. Take the SPIRITS TEST now at https://spiritstest.com/ and share your results online with the band by using the hashtag #SpiritsTest.
NOTHING MORE recently shared a lyric video for the upcoming album's title track "SPIRITS" which follows two previous singles/videos: "TURN IT UP LIKE (Stand In The Fire)" and their current Top 10 Billboard Active Rock radio single "TIRED OF WINNING." SPIRITS highlights the band's most focused, adventurous, and intense music, uniting introspective philosophical lyrics with unapologetically massive anthems. "With their smoldering intensity, sweeping chords, unpredictable drums and emotive lyrics,
Nothing More is a fascinating band that doesn't care about checking off genre boxes, instead focusing on cranking out some truly awesome music," lauds Get Rocked (5/29). Pre-order SPIRITS now at https://nothingmore.ffm.to/spirits.

* NOTHING MORE headlining
Rock audiences count NOTHING MORE among the most cherished acts, the kind of band who straddle the line between populism and intimacy with every performance. The San Antonio, Texas-born quartet builds unapologetically massive anthems from catchy hooks. Crowd-pleasers clear a path for heady, confessional, thought-provoking emotionalism.
Fresh rewards reveal themselves with repeat listens, welcoming like-minded seekers with rich melodicism, like the best of
Deftones or Tool.
Those who saw the band on tour with hard rock heavyweights like Shinedown, Five Finger Death Punch, Breaking Benjamin, Papa Roach, and
Disturbed will attest to what The Guardian observed: "There's a sophistication to NOTHING MORE's angst that raises them above the tumult-tossed pit."
Kerrang! named NOTHING MORE one of 22 Artists Shaping the
Future of Rock, alongside Nine Inch Nails, Twenty One Pilots, and Bring Me The Horizon. And frontman Jonny Hawkins, who met guitarist Mark Vollelunga before they were old enough to drive, appeared with Billie Joe Armstrong, Dave Grohl, and
Hayley Williams in the English tastemaker's Top 50 Greatest Rockstars in the World.
Hawkins and Vollelunga started the band in 2003 and were quickly joined by bassist
Daniel Oliver and later by drummer Ben Anderson. The band's blend of explosive bombast and nuanced storytelling resulted in a half dozen Top 10 singles at Mainstream Rock Radio, including the No. 1 hit "Go to War" and the
Sirius XM Octane song of the decade and Active Rock chart-topper "This is the Time (Ballast)." The Stories We Tell Ourselves earned a head-turning three Grammy nominations. They're set to follow it up with a new album in 2022, which is filled with their most philosophical and primal music to date. The first offering, "TURN IT UP LIKE," released in March 2022, is a fitting first taste of what's to come.
NOTHING MORE appeals to fans of Linkin Park, Incubus, Rage Against The Machine, and all crucial acts that stoke relatable passion with authenticity and integrity. Memorize the arena-ready hooks. Get mesmerized by the intimate, communal live show. Dig deeper down the rabbit hole into the work of philosophers and artists like Eckhart Tolle, Carl Jung, and Alan Watts, who inspire the band. There's a place for every type of rock fan with NOTHING MORE. Built to last, here to stay.
