NEST will be touring in support of their Endeavors full-length released in April via Housecore Records.

Vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer, Jarvis has constructed a repository for extreme sounds and emotions in NEST. On one end of the spectrum, his grating riffs played with icy industrial precision and hardcore grit will leave you bloody, bruised, and breathless. On the other, his shoegaze hum bellows in a strangely soothing trance, bordering on blissful in the face of raw destruction. This vision takes shape like never before on NEST’s fourth full-length LP and Housecore Records debut, Endeavors.

A lifelong musician, Jarvis has quietly left his imprint on the underground as bassist for Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Fulgora, and Pig Destroyer. Moreover, his low-end shaped the sonic assault of Scour alongside a true murderers’ row of extreme metal luminaries fronted by Housecore Records founder and Pantera and Down vocalist Philip H. Anselmo. Drawing on influences as diverse as Helmet, Hum, Deftones, and Quicksand, Jarvis formally introduced NEST with his self-titled debut in 2020 followed by Pretense [2020] and Tipping Point [2021]. Signing to Housecore in 2023, he personally wrote, recorded, performed, and curated Endeavors over the course of a week in his hometown of St. Louis, Missouri. He harnessed unbridled energy during the sessions, packing intensity airtight into a concentrated punch.

Endeavors is available on CD, LP, and digital formats. Find preorders at the Housecore Records webshop HERE or Bandcamp HERE.

“…a bleak and abrasive sludge record, one that understands the genre is best at its absolute darkest.” – Decibel Magazine

 instantly captivating because the purpose-driven seamless cross-pollination of subgenres. The interesting moniker was apparently chosen to reference the dichotomy of what nests can be, beautiful homes to aesthetically pleasing creatures on one hand, vile and filthy abodes to rodents and the like on the other. This duality is evident throughout Endeavors with the balance and movement between music that’s soothing and melodious at points, rough and ugly at others, much like the entirety of the human experience.”  – Blabbermouth

“This album certainly occupies a unique place and has an audience who will enjoy its stylistic left-of-center approach to blending atmosphere with heavy mood.” — Ghost Cult
