RELEASE DATE: 5/16/25 PLEASE NOTE: There is a 1-per customer qty. limit on the RevHQ Exclusive version of this release. THE NERVE AGENTS were born from the late-'90s, Bay Area Hardcore scene with vocalist Eric Ozenne, formerly of local stalwarts UNIT PRIDE and REDEMPTION 87, joining with Tim Presley and Andy Granelli of MODEL AMERICAN. What resulted was a throwback sound to an era of hardcore punk not unlike early-YOUTH OF TODAY, CIRCLE JERKS, 7 SECONDS, and AGNOSTIC FRONT, that still managed to showcase the members' personalities and experiences, with art and lyrics reflecting on Ozenne's time in the military with vivid references to the horrors of chemical weapons. With this eight-song EP as the catalyst, THE NERVE AGENTS steep trajectory in the West Coast hardcore and punk underground found them playing smaller, more formative shows and growing alongside bands like TIGER ARMY and THE DISTILLERS (which NERVE AGENTS drummer Andy Granelli would join and play with from 2000 to present day). The EP was a perfect match for Revelation Records, who, in the late 1990s with THE NERVE AGENTS , IN MY EYES, WHERE FEAR AND WEAPONS MEET, and BETTER THAN A THOUSAND, was finding a return to the fast hardcore sound that brought them to underground music fame ten years prior. This new pressing is the first vinyl pressing since 2014 and features a full-color obi strip plus an eight-page booklet with lyrics, and expanded artwork featuring flyers, and writings from both scene luminaries and casual fans of the band, showing THE NERVE AGENTS deep connection and reverence to all who they touched. 131 Coke Bottle Clear With Ltd.
