Nerv's music is a
jazz -influenceddeath metal andhardcore punk band. Its first release was called "mech. Naturaleza", and was followed by an EP entitled "away.fromanyhuman".After several line up changes the band got stable with the arrival of David and Younés, respectively bassist and vocals in the band. Nerv's first effort built strong basis with odd
time signatures and complex, jazz-influenced structures. Away.fromanyhuman, soon to be released, uses thinking metal's strengths, linking the vocalstructures with the music, usingparadoxes ,autoreference and even more complex mathematical patterns.After the recording of that EP, Ivo, founder of the band with Raphael, had to leave it for professional reasons.
