Seeing a new member's name (The Spaces Between) triggered memory of this song by Trent Reznor and his wife's band How To Destroy Angels (already, what a TSA kind of name).  I'm sure it's coincidence, but also wouldn't surprise me if one of them was a fan. Some of these lines are just perfect from a Nonman perspective:

Quote
All our blood lying on the floor
   Sense the crowd expecting something more.
   Opened up, proudly on display,
   What we try so hard to hide away

   Blinding light illuminates the scene
   Try to fill the spaces in between

   Arms entwined in our final pose
   Narrative drawing to a close
   Still remain the things we couldn't kill
   In your eyes I can see it still
 
   How we choose the framing of the scene
   Hate begins to spill across the screen
   
   Blinding light illuminates the scene
   Try to fill the spaces in between
And the song - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-zFAio2nMA
