Album Notes

Mood Swing -- The Nails' 1984 album is finally on CD! Remastered from the original RCA tapes with bonus tracks! Contains the hit version of 88 Lines about 44 Women plus Home of the Brave, both of which continue to garner airplay over 20 years after its vinyl release. All Music Review states: "While this album will always be remembered for its one novelty hit, Mood Swing is a remarkably consistent and confident debut. The band sounds a bit like a cross between the Damned and Jim Carroll in their best moments, with all that implies -- powerful musicianship, dark and occasionally shocking lyrics ... The Nails were an uncommonly sophisticated rock band with a rollicking brass backup and an extraordinarily talented singer and lyricist, and on this album they got everything right."

I love this album...creative, fun, amusing lyrics, just plain sounds great musically. After patiently keeping an eye out for its CD release for ages, I was just about to record my original vinyl album to CD when I serendipitously discovered that it had been rereleased at last. Now I have a good CD for car use. Yesssss!

Wow, I used to have this on cassette tape in \'88, loaned it to some dufus I used to work with and never got it back, when I went to get a copy found out it was out of print, so glad I checked back on it\'s status again 20 years later. This album is timeless, or maybe The Nails were way ahead of their time, I\'m still rocking out to it in my car (I drive a lot!!) I still have Dangerous Dreams on cassette, I\'ll have to play that and see how that one holds up, although I remember that it was not quite what Mood Swing is, and I still dig it!!
