ABOUT
~ANW~ describe themselves as a band that is a mix of old Motley Crue/Guns N' Roses/L.A. Guns/Skid Row and a flair of Modern Rock all rolled into one with their own style. "We are not a glam band by any means, but we don't shy away from our influences either. We are five guys who just wanna rock and have a good time doing it."
....They go on to say, "The music business became too much of a "business" for some of us, so we decided to break everything back down to its rawest and simplest components with this band. We went back to the basics and what you get is A Nervous Wreck: straight ahead, in your face, balls to the wall, love us or hate us, make NO apologies rock n' roll, and we promise a good time will be had by all."......
