Watch this space and Occultation's website for details of Nothing's release.
Fantastic, really looking forward to the old/new releases not to mention the sleeve notes. They have been badly missed, by this music fan at least, and its a travesty that the band never got the real recognition they deserved. But there again anyone reading this already knows that! Cracking job on the website as well....
