THE BOHEMIAN BEDROCKS (a.k.a. The Optic Nerve) - Bohemian Bedrocks [USA garage, psychedelic 1984] 2012 Screaming Apple SCALP 199

 

Recorded in 1984 in New York City, this wax captures the live vibe of Bobby Belfiore (formerly of The Purple Onion), Orin Portnoy (formerly of The OUTTA PLACE), Elan Portnoy (the FUZZTONES, the HEADLESS HORSEMEN) and Ira Elliot (the FUZZTONES, NADA SURF). A blend of dark, sizzling psych-punk, wylde garage-beat, ravin' r'n'b and jangly folk rock, reminiscent of the 13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS, Rolling Stones, EYES, Q65, BYRDS.
