Nero Announce Potential New Music 'The Thrill'

U.K. electro-dubstep trio Nero has an announcement to make. Daniel Stephens, Joe Ray and Alana Watson have been noticeably silent as of late, having not posted on social media in 2015 before today as they gear up for the follow-up to their debut studio album Welcome Reality. The trio posted simply "The Thrill" with a date and time -- this Thursday, March 19, at 7:20 p.m. GMT or 3:20 p.m. EST.

There are no further details about what this "thrill" is. It could be the title of their long-awaited album or maybe just a new single. They have not released any new music since May 2014's "Satisfy," which did just that for a short time, but left fans wanting to hear more.

The timing in the tweet would suggest a radio premiere on BBC Radio One with Annie Mac as potentially the hottest record in the world. Mac starts at 7 p.m. on BBC Radio One, and the relationship between the two parties has been strong. Most recently, Zane Lowe premiered "Satisfy" on the radio.

At the beginning of February, Metropolis Studios engineer Stuart Hawkes, whose résumé includes work on projects for the likes of Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and Lorde, tweeted out that he was mastering the Nero album and that it is "definitely worth waiting for!"

Since 2011's Welcome Reality, the trio has been releasing new music sporadically. They landed co-production credits on Muse's song "Follow Me," shared a two-track EP at the end of 2012 and wrote a song for the star-studded Great Gatsby soundtrack.

If this is new music, fans will be delighted to hear anything new from Nero.
