Episode 370: NIHILANTH: Belfast, Belief & Brutality | 'Detritus Of Ruin' EP Deep Dive with Aidan (Vocals) & Pete (Riffs/Back Vocals) of the Metal/Deathcore band.

April 3rd, 2026

Nihilanth sit down for an exclusive track-by-track breakdown of their new EP 'Detritus Of Ruin', diving deep into the stories, themes and creative process behind each song.
From the raw intensity of “Ruin” to the darker, more personal themes explored in “Don’t Pray For Me,” Aidan (Vocals) & Pete (Riffs) unpack the evolution of the band following lineup changes and how this release became the most focused version of Nihilanth to date.
They also talk about pushing themselves in the studio with JSR Audio, collaborating with others, Bloodstock Open Air, and the videos that went into bringing the band’s darker ideas to life visually.
Belfast has always had a story to tell — this is one of the heavier ones!
