 In August 2013 Nothing toured with Whirr, and as a result, members of Nothing and Whirr formed a side project called Death of Lovers.The two bands also released a split EP in 2014, and Whirr member Nick Bassett (ex-Deafheaven) joined Nothing on bass.Nothing then signed to Collect Records, but terminated its contract with the label shortly afterward due to the label's ties to former Turing Pharmaceuticals CEO Martin Shkreli.
