Nerve Net

Nerve Net is the eleventh solo studio album by Brian Eno, released on 1 September 1992 on Opal and Warner Bros. Records. It marked a return to more rock-oriented material, mixed with heavily syncopated rhythms, experimental electronic compositions and occasional elements of jazz. The ambient sensibility is still present on several tracks, though it is often darker and moodier than the pieces Eno is best known for.

David Bennun of Melody Maker called it a "loud and unmistakably self-imposing record" that is comparable to earlier collaborative albums Eno made with Roxy Music, David Bowie, Talking Heads, David Byrne and U2, albeit "with all the tunes taken out and the found noises left in." NME critic Betty Page noted that Eno eschewed soothing meditative pieces, instead "stabbing bits of broken glass into funk, jazz, electro, world and otherworld, to produce a sonic mutation clearly ahead of its time."
