““Mood Is Low” is the Nasty going back to what gave them birth. Like the prodigal son, or an excommunicated John Wick looking for solace, 9 O’Clock Nasty returns with 2 minutes of pure aggression, sweaty T-shirts, and high levels of self-induced dopamine. We will vibrate to the groove, and scream in ecstasy once again to the sheer power of these loon-raccoons” @jpgchief.
