Face to Face – Standards & Practices – CD (Vagrant Records) This is one awesome CD. When the first song kicked in I was thinking to myself that they sounded a bit like the Smiths. Then I did some things and came back and they sounded like Bob Mould. So...

Filthy Thieving Bastards – A Melody of Retreads and Broken Quills – CD (BYO Records) It’s a streetpunk hoedown! Get some talented street punks and mellow them out a bit (get them stoned?) and throw in a mandolin, pedal steel, accordion, violin, piano,...

Foetus – Blow Remix – CD (Thirsty Ear Records) This is a disk of remixes of the songs on their Blow release. I’m not familiar with the original versions of the songs, but I do like what the DJ’s have done with these remixes. Some of the DJ’s included are...

Fisher – True North – CD (Farmclub / Interscope Records) I would place Fisher somewhere between Alanis Morrisette and Sarah Mclaughlin. She has that soft sweet voice full of passion that Sarah possesses, but it explodes at times into restrained angst...

Fairmont Girls – Fairmont Girls – Cassette Four songs of catchy pop punk are what you get with this release. I found the overall sound enjoyable, however some factors, such as poor production, made this just another punk-pop band. I am looking forward to...

Fairweather – If They Move… Kill Them – CD (Equal Vision Records) Okay, this will be my second reference to The Barnhills in this issue. The tunes on this release are beautiful pop punk gems with catchy rhythms and killer changes. And yes, I liken their...

Flys, The – Outta My Way – CD (Trauma Records) This CD sure doesn’t sound like the “Got You Where I Want You” song that was constantly played on top-40 alternative radio last year. This CD rocks. From the opening beat of “No Sad Story” to the melodic...

Foundation – Foundation – CD (Foundation) Wonderful acoustic driven alternative rock. The vocals remind me of Mr. Billy from Greenday without the slick production. The basic production is one of the things that I really like about this release. What needs...
