Author Hernan Osuna - 2.4.2024

Irish West Coast industrial noise punk group Nerves have shared their debut EP titled “Glórach”. The 8-track material is out now via Galway’s Blowtorch Records. Order Nerves’ “Glorach” 12″ ruby vinyl EP here.

Having spent 2 years refining their sound since their last release, the Irish outfit is now ready to present their debut EP “Glórach”.

Blending punk, hardcore, industrial and samples, the band have pulled off a thrilling mix of melody and noise. It is underpinned by lyrics dealing with loss and mental health in the rural west and a visual aesthetic seeped in its inherent Irish sensibilities. Death, degradation and emigration in Ireland are themes that are bound to the DNA of “Glórach”.

Recorded and co-produced by Daniel Fox of Gilla Band, this body of work captures much of the sonic devastation that the band are capable of dishing out live.

Nerves
have been compared to My Bloody Valentine, Nine Inch Nails, Big Black and Bauhaus but in truth their sound across the five tracks of this EP is harder to define.
