Spring of 2005 saw the first "mass production" from the band, their self-produced first demo. It could be found at various small businesses in the Pensacola area(End of the Line Cafe, [[East Hill CD Exchange]], and Tom's Records Tapes & CD's). While it was a really rough sample, it caught some attention as it helped book shows and start an online fan base through MySpace.
That summer, the band announced via their website that bass player and singer, Castro, had left the band due to moving away for school. Shortly thereafter, McEwen transferred instruments, leaving trombone for bass. By the fall, the band had recruited horn players Josh Taylor(trumpet/trombone), formerly of The Metros, and Adam Ortiz(saxophone).
That summer, the band recruited horn player TJ Wallen(trombone), formerly of The Metros. Furthermore, they won a spot on the [[Ernie Ball]]: Battle of the Bands, and performed at the 2007 [[Vans Warped Tour]] in [[Jacksonville, Florida]]. That summer Out of Nothing had a few short tours around Florida, which expanded their fan base and popularity<ref>[http://www.inweekly.net/article.asp?artID=4946 Pensacola Independent News article]</ref>; this helped them get their song “Armstrong” on a compilation disc put out by Skacore Records that fall, titled "Sunshine State Ska: Volume 1".
In the spring of 2008, the band went in the studio and professionally recorded ''Everyone Perishes'', their first [[EP]] which can be found on Interpunk<ref>[http://interpunk.com/item.cfm?Item=9302/ Interpunk.com]</ref>, CD Baby<ref>[[https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/outofnothing/ CD Baby]]</ref>, and [[U.S.]] [[iTunes Store]]. Artist, Perviz Heyat<ref>[httphttps://wwwitunes.pheyatartworkapple.com/ Artwork by Perviz Heyatlu/album/everyone-perishes/id287230163/ U.S. iTunes Store]</ref>. Artist, Perviz Heyat, did the artwork found on both the sleeve and CD. It got many positive reviews from the media and audience, such as:
{{cquote|...Out of Nothing is on to something: 7 tracks blending punk and ska...They do have a nice [[Third_wave_ska|3rd wave]] thing going on, not unlike a mix of [[MU330]] and [[Voodoo Glowskulls]]......Do what you can to get yourself a copy of “Everyone Perishes” because it’s good...<ref>[http://upstarter.com/reviews/punk/out-of-nothing-everything-perishes.html/ !upstarter Punk Reviews thoughts on Everyone Perishes]</ref>}}
