Volcanic-Fluffer – CD (Ruf Records) I guess I’d call this Indienoise? Closest in concept to the B-52’s or the Violent Femmes. {Regan} (2001)

Lupine Howl – 125 – CD (Beggars Banquet Records) This caught my attention because the single, “Vaporizer”, was being played on WOXY– good song, very interesting. The rest of this seven-song EP is much more experimental. But their lack of radio hits...

Irish Leo – Beware the Chicken – CD Take some Rusted Root, mix with Dayton Rock weirdness, add a pinch of Zydeco and top-off with some killer female lead vocals. This disc is fun and quirky—will add life to any summer gathering. {Regan}...
