NERVE

Vinyl LP pressing. 2016 release, the third full length from Psychic Teens. Following 2013's acclaimed Come, Nerve continues the evolution of Psychic Teens as one of the most striking bands to emerge from Philadelphia's burgeoning underground music community. After releasing the single oFaceo with Reptilian Records in 2014, the band embarked on a short string of tour dates which allowed them to put the finishing touches on this new batch of songs in a live setting. The band then settled in at Gradwell House studio in early 2015 with Steve Poponi (Fight Amp, Into It. Over It) to record what would evolve into Nerve. With more focused songwriting and nuanced arrangements, the band expanded on the atmospheric and colossal guitar driven attack they have become known for. Poponi, who has mixed the band in a live setting, added and subtracted elements to help Psychic Teens shape-shift to create an album that satiates appetites for music that is both tuneful and gloomy while maintaining the band's trademark overdriven and monolithic sound.
