The Damn Personals – Driver / Driver – CD (Big Wheel Recreation) When I heard the first song on this release I kept thinking ’80s sound in the vein of the Vapors, very catchy but just not as pop catchy. The more I got into the CD, the more the songs...

The Drunken Cholos – Livin La Vida Loca – CD (Hopeless Records) Consisting of the original Queers lineup, The Drunken Cholos put out fast and furious punk. There are 7 songs on this CD. However, it seems like a few seconds after I push play the music is...

Disaster Strikes – DS – CD (Rodent Popsicle Records) Hmmm, ten songs in eighteen minutes. DS just doesn’t waste anytime getting to what they are about which is sociopolitical hardcore. They sing about how companies abuse them and other workers, how school...

Daycare Swindlers-Testarosa – CD (Vile Beat) I wonder when this ska part will change into something more punk, aahh there we go. Points off for predictability. I don’t want to dis these guys too bad, the album sounds good and obviously these boys can play, the...

Dogpiss – Eine Kleine Punkmusik – CD (Honest Don’s) This band is guitar orientated with an alternative-punk feel. The vocals are very melodic and at times the guitars are churning. They have a bit of a Green Day sound about them, which I’m sure they...

Death Cab for Cutie – We Have the Facts and We’re Voting Yes – CD (Barsuk Records) Mellow, dreamy, swirly, hypnotic… these are just a few words that describe the sound that you will find when you listen to this release. The music will put you...

Dance Hall Crashers – The Live Record – CD (Pink and Black Records) I usually don’t like live albums, because they’re usually self-indulgent pieces of crap with substandard versions of a bands songs and no extra insight into their live show since they were...

Dryspell – Kitty Porn – CD (Ill Legal Records) This CD is chocked full of fabulous pop-punk melodies that get your toes tappin’ and body movin’. The stand out tune on this release is “Lucy”, which reminded me a bit of the band Material Issue more for the...

Dark Fantastic – Goodbye Crooked Scar – CD (Up Records) For some reason I was expecting a sound similar of Bauhaus, Nick Cave or even the Swans. I guess it mostly had to do with the name of the group. While the music and vocals are deep and somewhat...
