Canned Heat 1967-1976 – The Boogie House Tapes – CD (Rockalachian Records) Twenty-nine tracks on two discs of nothing but good old-fashioned blues-rock, or Boogie as Canned Heat likes to call it. According to legend, The Boogie House is the home of radio...

Stuart Hart – Inner Voice – CD (Mother West) I have no idea how this CD got sent to Mutant Renegade Zine for review. It would be much more appropriate for something like Soft Rock Weekly, if such a publication even exists. “Inner Voice” is, in...

In My Eyes – Nothing to Hide – CD (Revelation Records) Hardcore a la Gorilla Biscuits with a really nice, tight sound. Sweet Pete lays down some great vocals, and the guitar work of In My Eyes is some of the best I’ve heard from a hardcore band since...

Man Scouts of America – Crash Course – CD (RAFR Records) Okay, I chose this CD to review because I thought that Man Scouts of America was a pretty bitchin name. Not only that, but going by the cover artwork and the photos inside, I thought this would be a...

Osker – Treatment 5 – CD (Epitaph Records) This is just another pop-punk combo that has echoes of Green Day and other Berkeley, CA punk bands in their sound. The sad thing is, they take this genre of pop-punk and do absolutely nothing new with it. The...

V/A – Go-Kart vs. The Corporate Giant 2 – CD (Go-Kart Records) Go-Kart records has some nice-ass punkers on their label, and this compilation features the best of them. Great examples of snotty, hard-hitting PUNK RAWK!! abound. Even the graphics are rad:...

Bargain Music – 77 03 – CD (Beatville Records) Maybe it’s just because they’re from Long Beach, CA too, but Bargain Music just wants to be Sublime. Everything about this is a complete rip-off: lyrical and vocal style, the ska influence, all of...
