6X – Kung-Pow – CD (Daemon Records) Finally, Daemon Records releases something that I really like. This is easily my favorite from their label. 6X features Lara Kaing and Tim Johnson from 17 Years (great band I reviewed in #10). They play great, high...

Boris the Sprinkler – Suck – CD (Go-Kart Records) Fast and fun, it’s Boris The Sprinkler. This band is full of tomfoolery and has an earlier Ramones sound. For some reason while listening to this c.d. I thought to myself “This band should do a...

Daltonic – Chattanooga – CD (Antietam Recordings) When I first popped this in I thought I had put Avail in by mistake. Well, it wasn’t Avail but was very similar. Since I love them, I now love Daltonic. They have great reflective personal lyrics in...

The Flashing Astonishers – Everything is Gonna Stop – CD (Koala Records) These guys have a late 80’s early 90’s sound invoking memories of REM and the Pixies. Well, the songs are basically one or the other, with a few being…lame. The lyrics are mostly...

Groovie Ghoulies – Fun in the Dark – CD (Lookout Records) A slower Ramones-esk back-beat with nasally vocals is a good description of this bands sound. The songs are pure punk fun. I feel that this is what punk might have sounded like in the 50′s. -...

Legbone – Old and Lazy – CD First off any band who mentions The Fleshbats and The Haunting Souls in their first song gets points in my book. (Two great late 80′s Dayton punk bands). This is very late 80′s sounding punk rock…not the radio...

The Mulchmen – Greetings! from Planet Stupider – CD (Big Beef Records) Surfer review: Oh, man, like wow. I mean, dude. It’s like they just… I mean, like I said, “No way!” to my buds and they said, “Dude, Yeeeeah!”....

Priapistol II – Priapistol II – Cassette This release is what happens when two guys get together with an ensemble of electronic instruments and just go at it. This cassette full of experimental noise will surely get your parents into a hissy, and is that...

Vivian Slade – Vivian Slade – CD (Vivian Slade Music) At first I thought that this was going to be a decent c.d. It’s starts off with an acoustical quirkiness like local artist Jayne Sachs. Then the songs just bottom out. The problem I feel with this...

Tri-Danielson – Tri-Danielson (Omega) – CD (Tooth & Nail Records) This is one weird c.d. First off the tracks start at #14. The music is tinkley and reminds me of some old twisted children’s album. The vocal is a cross between Primus’ Mr....

Blindsided / Osker – Spaceman – 7″ (Bankshot Records) Oskar reminds me of AYCE style geekcore. The drums are what really stand out for me. It makes me think of KWAS and how their drummer used a marching field snare…maybe that’s the secret. Blindsided...

V/A – No Concessions Vol. 1 & 2 – Cassette (NC Rds) These two cassettes features songs from various European punk bands. With a click of a tape recorder and a muffled introduction between bands, these cassettes have that home taped feel about them....
