The debut album by Next To None,
"A Light in the Dark" is out today, June 29th on InsideOut Music.
The album features 9 songs of intense Progressive metal with Max Portnoy on
drums, Ryland Holland on guitar, Kris Rank on bass, and Thomas Cuce on
keyboards and lead vocals.
The album is already receiving great reviews:
"It's not brilliant because of someone having a
famous father. It's brilliant because it's just about the best Prog Metal
album released so far this year, and on so many levels that is
incredible." Maximum
Volume Music, 9.5/10
"If you want something to bang your head to, this is
it." The Prog Report

The band just released a lyric video for the album's epic
closer "Blood On My Hands."
Vocalist/keyboardist Thomas Cuce had this to say about
the track:
"At the time [I wrote the lyrics] it seemed like
every day there was a different person going crazy somewhere and shooting up
a building or whatever, and I would ask my self 'Why does this keep
happening? What was that person thinking? What led them to do this?' So I
tried to put myself in this person's head. I created a character and started
from the aftermath of the event, which is where we first hear about it in the
news." Of the song's extended arrangement, he says, "It took us
months to write this song and then months to learn it. We had a big dry erase
board that we used to chart out all the parts with the time signatures until
we had them memorized."
