Die Nerven

DIE NERVEN (“The Nerves” or “they're annoying“) are a German-speaking Post-Punk/Noise-Rock 3-piece with a penchant for gloom and nihilism. Founded as a noisy LoFi duo in 2010 in Esslingen near Stuttgart – South Germany – these young guys released several singles, eps and download albums before their first physical full-length Fluidum was put out by This Charming Man Records. 2014 saw the release of the follow-up album Fun which is – according to Jan Wigger from Spiegel Online – „one of the best and most relevant German-speaking albums of this decade“. The album was featured in almost every best of 2014 list in Germany.

But abroad the band impressed audiences as well. Big time. After playing festivals like Roskilde (DK) and Eurosonic in Groningen (NL), touring Israel and being the first German speaking band to release with US-label Amphetamine Reptile Records (!!!), Glitterhouse Records is very stoked to join forces with Julian Knoth (Voice, Bass), Max Rieger (Voice, Guitar) and Kevin Kuhn (Drums since 2012) aka DIE NERVEN. The new highly anticipated album is entitled OUT and will be released in October 2015. You have the slightest interest in a band that kicks ass without making a big deal out of it? You care for music that transports an attitude without being nosey at all? You might be interested in a band that bears slight resemblances of Mission Of Burma, Wipers, Bauhaus, Swans, Abwärts, Sonic Youth, Fehlfarben, Helmet or Mudhoney? You never heard of any of the bands mentioned – but you got ears to listen, a mind to understand and a stomach to digest? Either way – you’ll love DIE NERVEN.
