Nails sign with Nuclear Blast Entertainment

Official press release: Southern California-based four man hatecrew, Nails, have inked a deal with Nuclear Blast Entertainment to release their as-of-yet-untitled third album. This rabidly anticipated full-length is currently tentatively scheduled to be unleashed upon the masses sometime in the first quarter of 2015. "After waging an oppressive blitzkrieg against the world in 2013 with Abandon All Life, Nails will join the ranks of the legendary Nuclear Blast for our next campaign of grindcore/death/punk tyranny," comments vocalist/guitarist Todd Jones. "Alongside the hate dogs is none other than Monte Conner, building on his work with gods like Obituary, Death, and Sepultura in bringing the extreme underground to the forefront of heavy music. Deep in a Southern California bunker crafting our newest LP, the tyrants offer sincere thanks to our former team at Southern Lord for their commitment to Nails' vision. Long live bleak aggression, crushing rage, and audial warfare. Long live Nails. Hatred Ad Infinitum…" Formed in December 2007, Nails is comprised of Todd Jones, Taylor Young, John Gianelli, and A.R. Saba. Their music can only be described as being beyond conventional aural brutality. Their unique blend of grindcore, death metal, and punk invokes the most unabashed violent emotions from the recesses of its listeners' reptilian brains. Their raw sincerity, take- no-prisoners live show and D.I.Y. work ethic has earned the band a vast loyal following, and made them the most talked about band in the underground. The legendary Max Cavalera recently accurately declared their current album Abandon All Life as "one of the best albums of the last 20 years," and Nails to be "probably the heaviest band right now." Prepare to be conquered! Nails is: Todd Jones – Vocals, Guitar Saba – Guitar John Gianelli – Bass Taylor Young – Drums

Lenny Dykstra is stoked

anonymous 6/3/2014 1:54:58 PM

I guess the no touring rule doesn't apply to Austin because Nails plays here two or three times a year.

anonymous 6/3/2014 3:40:03 PM

They don't tour much but they do play a lot of tests. Anyway, who cares

anonymous 6/3/2014 3:40:37 PM

*fests

I watched Todd Jones get slapped like a bitch by some crazy jig in the Gaslight district. He didn't do one single thing about it. Band is decent though.

anonymous 6/3/2014 4:29:44 PM

who does todd jones think he is? he probably came up with that statement while breastfeeding his kid from his man breasts. what a poser.

anonymous 6/3/2014 4:31:45 PM

after delivering a blitzkrieg of baby formula and apple sauce; it was nap time at least his no touring rule gives him plenty of time to practice his scary metal faces while playing peekaboo

anonymous 6/3/2014 5:31:28 PM

todd is a poser fgt sit down pssy

anonymous 6/3/2014 5:54:00 PM

i dont get it

anonymous 6/3/2014 6:00:03 PM

Todd 'I'm metal now can we all forget about Betrayed' Jones

anonymous 6/4/2014 2:56:01 AM

Wonder how long their "no touring" rules will last now. Wondering the same. Nuclear Blast will want them to tour. TJ does have a regular job as an IT dude or something. Either way, fat fcks in the pit still will wear their merch.

anonymous 6/4/2014 6:03:57 AM

This band is trash

anonymous 6/4/2014 8:36:05 AM

Todd IS NOT metal. His band and albums rule though

anonymous 6/4/2014 5:38:16 PM

Wonder how long their "no touring" rules will last now. Wondering the same. Nuclear Blast will want them to tour. TJ does have a regular job as an IT dude or something. Either way, fat fcks in the pit still will wear their merch. This band makes a lot on merch and sell an amount of albums that will make NB a profit. They will tour the same amount and by their 3rd album for NB they will be drop them and a new statement about how they need an indie lable shall be penned

anonymous 6/4/2014 7:47:47 PM

Anyone who knows Todd Jones knows he doesn't talk like that. This is a bullshit promo, meant to be consistent with the persona Todd takes on when Nails plays. THATS WHATS UP

anonymous 6/4/2014 11:40:48 PM

SABA RANKS
