Song of the Day: Nina - In a Little While

By in News, Song of The Day | No Comments

Perhaps better known as the bassist/vocalist of hardcore punk cum crossover thrash band The Lead, Nina (full name Nina Llopis) released her debut album No Shadow of Turning for R.E.X. Music in 1991. As my friend and fellow fan Tim “Greybeard” Henderson (ex-Warlord) said, “This is a perfect example of 1991 music!” He’s so right. The album had hints of goth rock/post-punk, alternative rock, and jangle pop–a description which doesn’t make logical sense unless you lived through the early 90s.

Musically similar to other early 90s female-fronted alternative bands like The Darling Buds and Concrete Blonde, the effort was a huge departure from her previous material with the hardcore/thrash band from which we’d come to know her. This track is the only one I can find on YouTube, and while it isn’t necessarily the strongest track on the album, it is representative of the hybrid style she successfully employs.

Nina has recorded 2 more full-lengths and an EP, but most of those lean more towards adult contemporary and/or praise and worship.
