Bad Nerves return with their heaviest and most uncompromising release to date. New single ‘Network’ marks the beginning of a bold new chapter for the Essex five-piece and offers the first glimpse into a forthcoming exciting announcement - with more news set to follow soon. ‘Network’ is now available everywhere via Loosegroove Records (owned by Stone Gossard, Pearl Jam).

The past two years have seen Bad Nerves reach new heights. Following the release of their critically acclaimed second album Still Nervous, the band have toured relentlessly across the globe, sharing stages with Green Day across South America and Europe, Weezer throughout Europe, and taking their explosive live show to Australia and Japan. Along the way they've stepped up to major festival main stages, appearing at Lollapalooza Chile & Chicago, 2000Trees, Rock IM Park/Rock AM Ring, Sziget Festival and more this year, cementing their reputation as one of the most exciting live bands in modern rock.

If "Still Nervous" established Bad Nerves as one of the UK's most vital contemporary rock bands, ‘Network’ pushes them into entirely new territory. Heavier, darker and more confrontational than anything they've released before, the track signals a clear evolution in both sound and ambition.

Built around an atmosphere of mounting tension, ‘Network’ explores the modern manipulation of public thought through digital media, social platforms and 24-hour news cycles. The song takes a broader aim at the systems that shape perception, influence behaviour and quietly control narratives. It is a challenge to the endless stream of information we consume every day and a call to think beyond the noise.
