Doctor Nerve is a rock band that has been annihilating the boundaries between rock, metal, improvisation, jazz, and experimental music since 1983.
![]() EREIA RUNE 126 |
Composed by Nick Didkovsky, Ereia, recorded with The Sirius String Quartet was the group's fifth studio album. "Four
years of hard labor & 14 musicians with a commitment to total
annihilation; painstaking compositions & apocalyptic
deconstructions burned into a single laser-guided CD projectile." – Nick Didkovsky "Using
deconstructed phrasing, computer-generated scores, and intuitive
improvisation techniques, the Nerve is one of the most fluent ensembles
currently nestled in the Big Apple. |
![]() SKIN RUNE 70 |
On Skin,
Nerve finds the unlikely meeting ground between heavy metal, thrashcore
and artrock. The densest, heaviest, most intricately composed music you
could ever imagine! |
![]() ARMED OBSERVATION / OUT TO BOMB FRESH KINGS RUNE 38 |
These
are the first two albums, complete on one CD, that cemented Nerve's
reputation as one of New York City's most fast 'n' furious bands. The
first album is somewhat more in the vein of the early 80's punk/jazz
scene (Massacre, Material) than later work, and with embryonic versions
of the lineup, but it still smokes. Armed Observation was their second,
and the definitive Nerve sound is beginning to be cemented into place.
Hot NYC downtown fusion. Get it while you can! |
