Respected hardcore contemporaries Nails have released the first instalment in a video series, which documents the creation of the band's upcoming album, 'You Will Never Be One of Us'.

Having released the title track last month, the band will unleash their third studio album this June.

"My point [was], I just want to make music that's one emotion all the way through, and I want it to be anger - the emotional feeling of wanting to punch something," guitarist/vocalist Todd Jones states.

Recorded with the man that never sleeps - Converge's Kurt Ballou - the band previously discussed the construct of the anticipated record.

"Our new record has some new twists and turns that are built off the foundation we laid with our previous albums, as well as a lot of familiarity that you've come to expect from NAILS. You Will Never Be One Of Us is for us, for our fans, and for anybody else who feels disgusted and fed-up with social-climbing impostors, trying to leech off of anything they've ever dedicated themselves to. I can say with 110% certainty: We will not let you down," Jones also said previously.

'You Will Never Be One of Us' was named in our most anticipated albums of 2016 feature.
