asp's classic albums # 58: the vss - nervous circuits

THE VSS "NERVOUS CIRCUITS"
Honey Bear Records 1997/Hydrahead 2008

Recently reissued finally. Somewhat bizarre post punk with inventive use of angular guitars, unusual rhythms, odd vocal effects, unconventional song structures, and horror movie sounding synthesziers. Merged punk, goth, psychedelia, noise, and experimental rock and sounded like a weird mix between the Phantom Limbs and Brainiac or something but a lot darker. Been one of my favorite for years and definitely has not gotten the respect it deserves.

it's been a long time since i put on that record. i used to love the vss.

uhler · 01.02.2009, 01:39 PM

i just saw it got rereleased by hydrahead. that's one of the last labels that i would expect would release the vss.

I fucking love the VSS. They were on gravity records right? Great label either way. Heroin and Angel Hair always make me smile too.

Been listening to 21:51 a lot lately. Awesome album. My copy runs 21:53. Hmm.
