LYRES
Few bands in Boston rock & roll history have lasted as long, and made as much good music, as Lyres.
Led by garage rock obsessive, record collector, Farfisa organ king, and world-class megalomaniac
Jeff "Monoman" Conolly, Lyres rose from the ashes of Conolly's first band, DMZ. Sporting a similar
high-energy trash-rock sound indebted to the Seeds, ? & the Mysterians, the Stooges, and the early
British Invasion (especially early Kinks), Lyres, for a brief, shining moment, were the kingpins of
Boston's punk rock scene. Resembling venerable British blues-rockers Savoy Brown because
of a constantly changing lineup (something like 40 musicians have passed through the ranks),
Lyres (or more specifically, Monoman) gleefully party on, oblivious of trends or the assorted
vagaries of the alternative rock marketplace. A dinosaur in his own right? Perhaps,
but as long as Jeff Conolly has his organ, a few guys behind him, and a place to play,
the simple joy that can only be had through rock & roll will exist in this world -- hipness be damned!

grading
RECORD EX but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)More emotionally complex and reflective than On Fyre, this could well be one of the most mature garage rock records ever recorded. That doesn't mean that energy and excitement are sacrificed for dour introspection -- far from it. This is a total joy from start to finish, and a great place to hang out after a thousand or so spins of On Fyre...(AllMusic)
