The Nymphs was an alternative rock band of the late 1980s and early 1990s with lead singer Inger Lorre. The band was signed to Geffen Records, and released their only album in 1991. The Nymphs were known for their wild stage shows and their rebellious attitude towards record companies. The band formed in 1985 and broke up in 1992.
Lorre and guitarist Geoff Siegel formed the band in New Jersey in the mid 1980s. The band moved to Los Angeles to pursue their musical careers, and after two members returned to New Jersey, Lorre and Siegel recruited guitarist Sam Merrick, drummer Alex Kirst and bass player Cliff D. (Cliff Jones).
The band was hoping to sign with an alternative label such as Alternative Tentacles, but their reputation led to interest from the major labels. However, the band's wild behavior led to some companies losing interest.
The Nymphs was composed by Leigh Hunt and published in Foliage, his 1818 collection of poems. The work describes the spirits of a rural landscape that are connected to Greek mythology. The images serve to discuss aspects of British life along with promoting the freedom of conscience for the British people. The collection as a whole received many attacks by contemporary critics, but later commentators viewed the poem favourably.
Background
During the end of 1816, Hunt began to put together his ideas for a poem that would become The Nymphs. While working on the poem in 1817, Hunt was staying at the Albion House in Marlow and spent much of his time in the garden or walking through the countryside. During this time, he heard stories of Francis Dashwood and his Hell-Fire Club, which its members spent their time drinking and pursuing women. The poem was included in Hunt's collection of poems called Foliage, which was published in early 1818. The Nymphs was the first poem in the book. When Hunt republished The Nymphs in his collected works, he did not republish portions of the poem possibly because of the themes not matching those found in his other works.
The Nymphs is the only full-length studio album recorded by the American rock band The Nymphs. It was produced by Bill Price, and released in 1991 on Geffen Records. There were music videos made for "Imitating Angels" and "Sad and Damned," neither of which attained commercial recognition. Iggy Pop sang on "Supersonic". The band broke up a few months after release.

LYRICS
Near to the clouds a lake keeps a spirit that nobody feels.
Lake from the high plains, fallen tears.
There's a nymph that anybody feels.
An old man.
He lives alone.
A rural life.
Mortal man who walks lonely through the fields,
under the sun and the shining moon.
He's waiting for someone who'll never come.
But the dark storm breaks the night.
The lake awakes and its water shakes.
The lady dances and spins in the eye of the storm, calling for him.
She sneaks into his dreams.
Late into the night he heard her calling.
His soul flew and he went for her.
... And the dark storm broke the night.
The lake awoke and its water shook.
The lady danced and played in the eye of the storm.
He'll never return.
They went far away.
