Aliya – Free Spirit – CD (Sound Temple) Put this CD on your disc changer, hit play and do laundry or eat a bowl of cereal. You’ll probably walk out of the house before you remember you left it on. It’s inoffensive, soft-spoken poetry set to...

Big Angry Fish! – The 13 Electric Turn-Ons – CD (Beluga Records) Let’s talk about Sohio, the fifth and best song on the CD. When I start reviewing I listen to a couple of songs, and then prioritize all the CD’s according to really good and really bad. This...

Catchpenny – Dajom – CD Another release by the Hobbit singer…I mean Catchpenny. On this release I think the singer strays even further from the band…except when he yells or gets into some pissed off vocals. Like at the end of …Kidding Myself. I think that...

Divit – Low Speed Chase – CD (Coldfront Records) This band has the punk with a pop edge sound. The sound is fast and the vocals are clean. I really like the lyrics for their positive slant. This band would be a treat to see live. - Mite Mutant...

Gadjits – Wish We Never Met – CD (Hellcat Records) The Gadjits play a more mellow form of ska, with most of the ska sound coming from the keyboardist. They’re not a band that you would listen to and jump around like a monkey. They’re more of a...

Iggy Pop – Avenue B – CD (Virgin Records) Iggy has been called everything from the godfather of punk rock to every mother’s worst nightmare. When I was eleven years old I gave my mother a heart attack when I asked to attend a local Iggy show at a...

Arto Lindsay – Prize – CD (Righteous Babe Records) This is supposed to be the first “Righteous Babe” release in which Ani Difranco had no hand in other than it being her record label. The music has that nice Brazilian feel about it. The male...

Meshell Ndegeocello – Bitter – CD (Maverick) I have to admit that I am a bit disappointed with this release. I’ve heard of Meshell for quite awhile. She was the first woman who was ever voted best bass player of the year by Guitar magazine, and...

Radar Bros. – The Swinging Hatchet – CD (See Thru Music) Slow and mellow alternative type music. A good word that describes this release is dredge. The slow pacing of the music makes me visualize myself trying to walk through two feet of mud. It’s a...

Spirit – For the Millennium – CD (J-Bird Records) It’s your basic piano-y new age meditating music. There are 8 bands on this release that accomplished its mission of putting me to sleep. The only problem was that it was at work, and my boss...

Today’s My Super Spaceout Day – Stars Made from Scars – CD (Beluga Records) I really like this band, but I think the singer is suffering a serious case of writer’s block. He repeats the same two lines throughout most songs with some actually...

The Vehicle Birth / The Wicked Farleys – Toronto/How’s My Driving – 7″ (Doom Nibbler Records) The Vehicle Birth start things off with a slow building post-punk song that gets interesting about half way through. Then it started to decompose into...
