When asked about what is next for Nervosa

"We finished a 15 year anniversary world tour. We also finished the new album and it's going to be released on April (2026), but we have the first single coming out on (Jan) 27.


When asked about the musical direction of the new Nervosa album

"We wanted to go a bit further than the previous album and have a bit more evolution. So we still kept like the melodies there but we wanted to be more brutal in a way. We still like keep the thrash vibe. We're getting more brutal but not in the extreme way. We kind of did a lot of (vocal) layers also. Yes, we tried a lot of new stuff in there and we're super excited."

Listen to first single here


Once again working with producer Martin Furia of German legends DESTRUCTION, the women bridge the gap between old-school power and critical modernity. Slave Machine adds twelve fiery songs to NERVOSA’s repertoire and is available for pre-order now!

 


Along with the announcement, NERVOSA release the title track of the upcoming record. “Slave Machine” serves as a perfect first harbinger of the fury the Brazilian group is about to unleash on the world: instantly turning up the speed and showing a slightly different side of the thrash band with a catchy alternative bridge, the crushing track kicks off a new era for NERVOSA!


 

NERVOSA about “Slave Machine”:

“This song is everything that we want to say and play, many different vocal layers and guitar melodies like a scream to say that we are all part of the ‘Slave Machine’.”


Twelve new songs show the five-piece exploring their crushing style in an enhanced way. Opening “Impending Doom” builds up menacingly, using thunderous riffs and jagged drums to establish the women’s dominance in the scene. The title track, “Slave Machine”, instantly turns up the speed and adds a surprising alternative bridge to the already catchy chorus, showing a slightly different side of the metal powerhouses. The following “Ghost Notes” unleashes a storm of heavy, yet easily recognizable riffs, driven by impelling drums and the ever-so-furious vocals of Prika Amaral, crowned by an astounding guitar solo. Through “Beast Of Burden”, NERVOSA shows their harshest side, while “You Are Not A Hero” offers a grand chorus, gifting Slave Machine a true anthem. “Hate” unfolds with raw brutality, and “The New Empire” looks for destruction with melodic precision. “30 Seconds” rises up to new heights, while “Crawl For Your Pride” combines NERVOSA’s trademark social criticism with gut-punching songwriting. Throughout “Learn Or Repeat” and “The Call”, the band once again sprinkles in some pieces of modern groove with old-school vibes before Slave Machine rears up one final time on the threateningly sinister “Speak In Fire”.
