About Me

Press: ............................................................ ............................................................ .... Revolver - "SOUNDS LIKE An angular, nerve-jangling mix of art rock, post-hardcore, and glam, the Nervous return sink their musical claws into the listener’s brain and never let go. ............................................................ ............................................................ ... Kerrang! - Album Review (UK) - James Sherry -"Warped Pop Genius from Los Angeles...Indeed 'Headshots' is a flashing Day-Glo explosion of twisted pop intellect that manages to challenge without ever losing sight of an infectious and melodic hook. This is mid-'70s glam rock excess colliding with razor-sharp post-punk noise. And it's great."[KKKK. ............................................................ ............................................................ .... Blender - Album Review - Jonah Weiner -"Los Angeles art-punk, courtesy of blink-182 drummer's new boutique label: Travis Barker is the guy in blink-182 who doesn't ask you to pull his finger. Quiet and severe, he's their mohawked straight man, and by signing this foursome to his boutique label, Barker confirms he's got more than pop-punk on the brain. Led by Jason Muller -- part singer, part drunken wailer -- Nervous Return make twitchy rock indebted to '80s hipness. "Dramahead" flirts with new wave while "Siberian Queer" evokes no-wave noise. The guitars -- pining, sailing jabbing and carving -- are pure Pixies, an influence repeated in the seedy, sex-laced lyrics. The songs are about meds, S&M, horny 9-to-5ers in midlife crises, and a self-hating homosexual who jerks off Tom Cruise. Download These: "Dramahead," "Murder Weapon"" [3 Stars]
