ROB SEZ: The Optic Nerve! Where else but here are you gonna snag a live show in very good sound quality by this nearly-forgotten, Dylanesque NYC garage band from the 1980s? If you like the Fuzztones, the Long Ryders, or the Lyres, I recommend you check out this group. This recording captures a fairly good performance, which picks up steam starting at track 11. Consider it a teaser for The Optic Nerve's two albums: Forever and a Day and Lotta Nerve, both of which are terrific (AllMusic gives them both 4 & 1/2 out of 5 stars). ON!, new album of previously unreleased material, is due for release in July. HUGE THANKS to whoever posted this (possibly the band?) for me to snag and share here. 
FLAC lossless capture, lossy source
thank you. looks interesting.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely worth checking out -- especially their albums. They're very hard to find right now, so try YouTube first.
