An stellar example of Jay Reatard's lo-fi branded, punk influenced, guy next door garage rock, "Nightmares" is off his 2006 solo debut, Blood Visions. That being said, "Nightmares" is in the middle of the Reatard spectrum; his songs get harder and, at times, softer (see below).
Whereas "Nightmares" was a demonstration of Reatard's straightforward punk rock, "I Know a Place" offers a more subtle listening experience. It's gentle and doesn't operate at a breakneck speed, differing greatly for Reatard's much more fervent material.
Jay Reatard's musical output is incredible. Since 1998, he's released nearly seventeen albums and thirty four 45s/EPs. He's definitely worth checking out.
