Kosher – Self Control – CD (BYO Records) Good olde punk-pop fun…which also is the only problem I have with this release. I listened to this same sound over a decade ago and while it’s fun it’s nothing new. I could think of 100 bands who sound similar...

Krakatoa – Plan Ahead – CD I saw / met this band at the infamous WE2K festival. I really liked them live, but had forgotten what they sounded like until I popped in this disc. So what do they sound like? I shall now enlighten you… Krakatoa is a blast...

Kill Your Idols – Kill Your Idols – CD (Blackout Records) I don’t know what pissed these boys off, but ohhhhh do they sound angry. They seem to attack their instruments with the fury of a wolverine, maybe they’re mad at their instruments. And the yelling,...

Kid Brother Collective – Highway Miles – CD (Point B) These guys have been around for quite some time and have consistently released great CD’s. I wish they would get more recognition because they are one of the better independent bands out here in the...

King Django-Reason – CD (Epitaph/Hellcat Records) Every once in a while I get a CD in that just surprises. This is one of those CDs. This band has a sound that’s a beautiful combination of rock, reggae and rap. The title track seems like it’s a version of a...

Kitty in the Tree – Hello Kitty – CD (LunaSea Records) WOW! This power pop 4-pc should be on its way to stardom. Hello Kitty sparkles like those tiny bubbles in cheap champagne-makes you happy, then it hits you and you can’t escape its power....

Klopecs – Shelbina, MO – CD (Crack Records) A fine mixture of snotty punk and pop punk of the early ‘90s. With a guitar sound and drum playing similar to The Oxymorons, and song structure of The Barnhills (defunct local bands), the Klopecs managed to mixed...

Gladys Knight & The Pips – The Best of – CD (Universal Records) You’ve heard the songs, you know what they’re about…buy it already. Geesh do I have to tell you everything? {Grog} (2001)

Kool & The Gang – The Millennium Collection – CD (Mercury Records / Universal) This appeals to my nostalgic side. I remember many of the songs on this collection from when I was first discovering Top 40 radio / pop music back in the mid 80′s. I...

Kid Brother Collective – Never Trust Yourself – CD (Doom Nibbler Records) I really liked these guys when they sent me their CD-EP last year for review. All I can say is that they’ve gotten better. Great songs that fall into the emo / punk-pop range...

Kittens for Christian – Is that what Sex is Like? – 2CD (Dirtbox Records) The first all-instrumental track made me think of Sonic Youth with that sort of slow distortion-rich guitar style and hot-ass drums (did I say I was complaining?!) On the second...
