Incredible!!! I had this cassette back in 91 and seem to remember playing the hell out of it. Somewhere along the way, I forgot all about Nymphs. About 4 years ago, I recalled owning this cassette but couldn't remember the band name, songs, anything about the band or even what they sounded like. The only thing I could remember was the cover art! I could picture it in my mind in that exact sick purple color and the cartoony icons swirling around. I just didn't see the band logo. I've been on a blog-search quest ever since then, desperatley falling asleep in front of the keyboard like Neo in The Matrix and scouring for guessed band names like "the slugs," "the slobs," even went to a few of those "help me name this tune" websites and never got a drop. You are solely responsible for supplying me with one of my white whales, albeit in digital form.
THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU
P.S. The shit still holds up! 1st time I listened to it, it's as good as I remember it being. The only critique I have, after 20 years and 3000 miles of distance, is that annoying snare drum sound, with that horrible early 90's LA big reverb or whatever it is...
Hey aL! Thanks for your great anecdote and glad to hear you finally found The Nymphs! This is what keeps me going - comments and people letting me know they appreciate the blog. :-) -M
