Emerging Leeds-based nu-hardcore group Bodyweb have shared plans for a new EP. Set to be their debut release for Flatspot Records (Speed, Scowl, End It), ‘deadwired’ will be released on September 5th.
The project began when Louis Hardy (Higher Power, Big Cheese, Fate) and Ben Jones (Pest Control) late-night jams were moulded into what would become their debut EP. Released in 2023, ‘train_wreck_simulation,’ saw the pair utilise frantic breakdowns and nu-metal swagger. With members coming and going, Bodyweb now have a settled line-up of Luke Thompson (Stiff Meds) on drums, Tom Hobson (Dai Tan Films) on guitar, and Naomi Macleod (Empire State Bastard) on bass.
‘deadwired’ will consist of four tracks, including new single, ‘deadwire’. It promises to be a shape-shifting mix of hardcore and nu-metal with earworm hooks.

Bodyweb have also shared a new track called ‘deadwire’. Commenting on its personal meaning, Louis Hardy shared, “It’s about fading relationships, cutting people off, and seeking truth in a world of lies. Life is full of suffering, but being entirely blameless for your own suffering is a surefire way to becoming disconnected from your own soul. It’s important to have faith in something.”
