NERVES

Alternative // Dublin

An experimental noise punk band hailing from Counties Mayo and Wicklow, Ireland.

Having built a reputation as one of the most deafening and brutal bands Ireland has to offer, Nerves returned in 2025 with their second EP, the critically lauded Iarmhaireacht, a project that combines aggression and beauty to create a poignant narrative and sonic arc that showcases their depth of sound and singular intent.
This EP tour saw them sell out hometown shows, gain major BBC 6 play and saw them embark on support tours across the UK and Europe with bands such as Gurriers, Maruja and The Jesus Lizard, as well as playing festivals in Europe and at home.
Set to begin 2026 with an explosive statement, Nerves have entered the studio once again with Daniel Fox (Gilla Band) to record a slew of singles to be released across the course of the year.
First out the gate is N26, an incendiary three minute blast of raging, techno influenced noise rock, owing as much to producers such as JK Flesh and Filmmaker as it does to bands like Fugazi and My Bloody Valentine.
the band has built a devoted fanbase off of their chaotic yet cathartic live show.

"A blast of corrosive sound, 'Leigue' pushes out towards the seven minute mark, a Brutalist construction that recalls Shellac in its bass-heavy abstraction." - CLASH magazine.

"It clatters like a bullet train with its bearings loose, while the drums keep it inches from chaos. An exercise in discipline and brevity" - Louder Than War
