I recently had a request to revive a link for a
Flying Nuns 7" I shared a good eight years ago. I granted that requested, and am going one better here with the expanded CD incarnation of that release,
Yard, featuring an additional track not on the vinyl. As I noted in that original entry, Mission of Burma comparisons are largely inevitable when describing the Nuns, also a trio from Beantown. Noisome, clangy guitar play and tense delivery are part and parcel of the band's intoxicating shtick, but so is melody. It's all wrapped up in a distinct post-punk context that these guys were so adept at. Brief, but excellent. A Flying Nuns
full length surfaced in 2002, and I believe that's the last we've heard of them.
