Press launch –
NAILED SHUT MA persistently deliver uncooked power and considerate dysfunction to every efficiency, delivering a sonic pressure that pushes New England’s hardcore/deathcore scene to the subsequent stage. Forming in 2022, the Boston five-piece — Asher Thomas (vocals), Joel Arnall (guitar/BGV), Mason Roth (guitar/BGV), Owen Chepow (bass), and Jake Thompson (drums) — are thrilled to launch their new EP, titled a promise made, a promise stored.
“With a promise made, a promise stored, we found a sound that’s unapologetically us fused with all of our inspirations,” Thomas says. “This EP has soaked up the blood, sweat and tears of all 5 members, and we hope you may really feel it coursing by means of your veins when listening. This EP introduced many challenges but in addition many victories, together with the chance to headline a favourite hometown venue kicking off a headline tour, the discharge of vinyl for the very first time and our upcoming April tour supporting The Final Ten Seconds Of Life and Traitors.”
He finishes, “To have a good time the discharge of this EP, we share with audiences one last music video for the EPs closing track ‘Mud To Mud’.’ That is personally my favourite video and single off of the document. It’ss the quickest, heaviest, most intense and positively essentially the most lyrically actual to me.”

Nailed Shut MA will hit the street this month for a headline tour of the Northeast, that includes help from Godeyes. The tour kicks off with a hometown present at The Sinclair, that includes help from Slamwich, Frog Mallet, and A number of Items. Nailed Shut MA will return to the street in April, supporting The Final Ten Seconds of Life. All dates are under.
With punishing unconventional vocals, Asher creates depictions of bodily and psychological horror by means of lyricism centered round psychological well being consciousness. The remainder of the band displays these themes musically by means of brutal riffs, tight drum grooves, and a gut-wrenching low finish. In 2023, the band launched its debut EP Lust within the Finish, which Idioteq described as “a surreal journey…delving into the darkest corners of the human expertise.”
Nailed Shut MA have carried out in lots of iconic venues throughout the northeast in addition to 2024 Inkcarceration Pageant. Bands they’ve shared the stage with embrace All Shall Perish, Peeling Flesh, Energy Journey, Kaonashi, Finish It, Gatecreeper, and plenty of extra. Their energetic performances are positive to knock the wind out of you. With rather more new music and plenty of extra reveals deliberate for the approaching months, Nailed Shut MA are right here to wreak havoc in 2026 and past.
