Swedish hard rockers NESTOR are set to release their first ever live album Live at Gothenburg Film Studios this Friday, August 14, 2026 via Napalm Records! Today, the band has revealed the final single with a powerful live version of their celebrated ’80s-inspired anthem “Teenage Rebel”, together with a live video. “Teenage Rebel” was originally released as the title track of the band’s critically acclaimed latest studio album (2024) that received international chart success, including reaching #12 on Official German Album Charts and #19 in Sweden. Drenched in nostalgia, the song features epic riffing, emotion-loaded melodies and a massive chorus that shines even brighter than before on the live version.

Vocalist Tobias Gustavsson comments:
“‘Teenage Rebel’ is all about lost youth. About being careless. About being fearless and living every day like there’s no tomorrow. We believe that message really shines through in this live performance of the song.”
Originally formed back in 1989, NESTOR took the international rock scene by storm with their comeback and first music releases in 2021, unleashing the debut album Kids in a ghost town (earning a Swedish Hard Rock/Metal Grammis nomination!). Since then, NESTOR has entered several charts internationally (incl. #12 on Official German Album Charts and #19 in Sweden) with the critically acclaimed following album Teenage Rebel (2024) and gathered millions of streams on several of their hits. The band has won over live audiences around the world, from huge European festivals to the Monsters Of Rock Cruise in the US and headline shows in Japan, and shared stages with legends like Kiss and Europe. NESTOR now showcases their nostalgic, 80’s-inspired melodic anthems in a new light—infused with their signature, radiant live presence.

Live at Gothenburg Film Studios treats fans old and new to a hefty selection of live versions of future classics from NESTOR‘s celebrated catalogue. The band brings the heat with a new rendition of their track “Firesign” (originally from Kids in a ghost town, 2021) – catchy riffs and rhythms carry the heavily ’80s-inspired, authentic sound that is topped with impressive rock vocals. Further highlights of this extensive, 16-track offering include a live rendition of one of the biggest NESTOR hits to date, “On The Run” (also from the praised debut Kids in a ghost town, 2021), featuring epic, AOR-inspired keys and guitars, and another one of the band’s possibly catchiest singalong-choruses so far. This comprehensive live album, one format available even with a special Blu-ray, draws from NESTOR‘s impressive repertoire of arena-worthy anthems and rock ballads, polished with the very best AOR and classic ’80s rock influences. Without a doubt, NESTOR continue their steady mission to restore the glory of rock!
Vocalist Tobias Gustavsson comments:
“When I listen to Live at Gothenburg Film Studios it becomes clear to me that it shows everything that NESTOR was about, from the beginning. A live performance with all the little quirks and mistakes that makes it human, a thing that I have learned to love even more in an era of AI generated music. Live at Gothenburg Film Studios is less clinical and more of a human experience in comparison to our studio albums and shows a different side of NESTOR. I hope you will enjoy it as much as we did recording it up on stage.”
