Brazilian thrash titans Nervosa are ready to tear through 2026 with the release of their sixth album, Slave Machine, arriving April 3 via Napalm Records. Leading the charge is their latest single, "Ghost Notes," a relentless storm of groove-laden riffs, pounding drums, and the raw, furious vocals of founding guitarist-turned-frontwoman Prika Amaral.
"Strong and heavy riffs with a lot of groove showing deep feelings in a very poetic way, this song is definitely special in many ways," the band says of the track.
The single also reunites the band with producer Martin Furia, known for his work with German metal legends Destruction, ensuring that Slave Machine bridges the gap between classic thrash power and contemporary ferocity.
"Slave Machine is the most brutal and melodic album of Nervosa, and we are proud to take this step further, keeping our roots," the band adds.
Having dominated stages from Wacken Open Air to Hellfest, Nervosa are no strangers to commanding attention. With Amaral now firmly at the helm on vocals since their 2023 record Jailbreak, the band delivers a sound as precise and crushing as a sledgehammer, reaffirming their status as genre frontrunners.
