I recall buying this one in a rather large lot of power pop/indie 45s but I only gave it a concerted listen about a week ago. Not to be confused with jangle-pop wunderkinds of the same namesake from Ontario, Canada,
The Nines this post concerns really didn't persist long enough to capture any significant online presence. Rambunctious, but manicured just enough to keep the proceedings from careening off the rails entirely, this quartet make their case across two brief numbers coming in just under five minutes total. Nothing artsy here, just potent, power chord-addled rock and rule that aficionados of Redd Kross, Bash & Pop and the Smugglers will eat up faster than Jimmy Chestnut going to town on a platter of chicken wings. A Nines ep and a full length followed this wax in 1996 and '98, respectively.
A. Gonna Get a Ring
