…And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead- Madonna – CD (Merge Records) Picture a daredevil wearing a black crash helmet, sitting calmly in a rickety, dining room armchair. He’s surrounded by piles of dynamite–fuses lit and sparking. The crowd is...

Black Cat Music – This is the New Romance – LP (Cheetah’s Records) Wine In A Box, hypnotizes the listener into a thick drug induced haze and paints the scenery with dyed black hair, dexedrine, and a faint stench of patchouli. I fell into deep...

The Clay People – The Clay People – CD (Slipdisc Records) Rumor has it these guys almost called themselves the Playdough People. Straightforward heavy metal release. Nothing too exciting and kind of boring. Better luck next time. 7/10 - Johnny Death...

Escape Velocity – Escape Velocity – CD (Surf Into Space Prod) Sci-fi surf ala Man or Astroman. Lots of strange synth noise background, and creepy vocals. They usually seem content to kick back and casually ride the New Wave. - Superchunk Steve...

Samael – Eternal – CD (Century Media) This band has progressed pretty far from their evil satanic days. The band has added what they call technology to the equation. Some keyboards and electronic drums add much to the bands sound. Still aggressive and evil...

U.K. Subs – Left For Dead – CD Another re-issue from “Roir”. This time it’s a live album by the UK Subs. The UK Subs always seemed to be one of those other bands that came on during the 76/77 punk outbreak with the Damned, X, The Strangles, The Clash, The...
