ILLUMINA A.D.’s Haunting Video “No One & Nothing” Surpasses 150,000 Views

A Cinematic Descent Into Darkness Strikes a Global Chord

Las Cruces, NM — August 28, 2025 — Southwestern gothic metal force ILLUMINA A.D. has reached a major milestone with their latest music video “No One & Nothing” — surpassing 150,000 views on YouTube since its premiere on July 25, 2025 . As of today, the video sits at 158,285 views , solidifying its impact as one of the band’s most powerful and resonant works to date.

“No One & Nothing” is more than a video — it’s a ritual in motion. Directed, written, and produced by Alexander Bane , with cinematography by Corey Weintraub and assistance from Allen Hryneck , the visual companion piece dives headfirst into the void. Stark, cinematic imagery underscores the track’s themes of identity, loss, and the collapse of meaning, transforming the song into a fevered dream and a requiem for the self.

Sonically, the track fuses atmospheric thrash and power metal with a desert-doom undercurrent and operatic elegance. Vocalist Nepthisis delivers a chilling incantation — part prayer, part prophecy — while the band surges beneath her with relentless, cataclysmic weight.

“This track was always meant to be more than music — it’s a descent,” the band explains. “We wanted it to feel like staring into the abyss, and judging by the response, people are staring right back with us.”

The overwhelming response from fans worldwide has propelled “No One & Nothing” far beyond expectation, marking a defining moment in ILLUMINA A.D.’s journey as one of the rising voices of modern gothic and extreme metal.
