The Nerve Agents [LP Colored Vinyl Deluxe Edition Obi]

The Nerve Agents - The Nerve Agents [LP Colored Vinyl Deluxe Edition Obi]

The Nerve Agents Were Born From The Late-'90S, Bay Area Hardcore Scene With 
Vocalist Eric Ozenne, Formerly Of Local Stalwarts Unit Pride And Redemption 87, 
Joining With Tim Presley And Andy Granelli Of Model American. What Resulted Was 
A Throwback Sound To An Era Of Hardcore Punk Not Unlike Early-Youth Of Today, 
Circle Jerks, 7 Seconds, And Agnostic Front, That Still Managed To Showcase 
The Members' Personalities And Experiences, With Art And Lyrics Reflecting On Ozenne's 
Time In The Military With Vivid References To The Horrors Of Chemical Weapons.
 With This Eight-Song Ep As The Catalyst, The Nerve Agents Steep Trajectory In The West 
Coast Hardcore And Punk Underground Found Them Playing Smaller, More Formative 
Shows And Growing Alongside Bands Like Tiger Army And The Distillers (Which 
Nerve Agents Drummer Andy Granelli Would Join And Play With From 2000 To Present 
Day).
 The Ep Was A Perfect Match For Revelation Records, Who, In The Late 1990S With The 
Nerve Agents, In My Eyes, Where Fear And Weapons Meet, And Better Than 
A Thousand, Was Finding A Return To The Fast Hardcore Sound That Brought Them To 
Underground Music Fame Ten Years Prior.
 This New Pressing Is The First Vinyl Pressing Since 2014 And Features A Full-Color Obi 
Strip Plus An Eight-Page Booklet With Lyrics, And Expanded Artwork Featuring Flyers, And 
Writings From Both Scene Luminaries And Casual Fans Of The Band, Showing The Nerve 
Agents Deep Connection And Reverence To All Who They Touched.
