Adrian Belew – Coming Attractions – CD (Thirsty Ear Records) Adrian Belew ? whether you know him from his work with the venerable King Crimson, art-rockers The Talking Heads or Frank Zappa, you gotta respect the man’s talent as both a songwriter and...

The Casualties – For the Punx – CD (GMM Records) Gutter punk ’77 style straight outta NYC. These guys have the look (the mohawks, the bondage pants, the spiked leather), and the snotty attitudes to match. Great live photos, and the cover is nice and...

Crosby – Nash – Live – CD (MCA / Universal Records) This release starts off explosively with the melding of the two voices floating on a rockin’/percussive musical carpet. Then the two start to mellow out, which didn’t grab me as much....

Edaline – I Wrote the Last Chapter for You – CD (Law of Inertia Records) Total emo infusion. Think of bands like Piebald, Pedro the Lion, The Wicked Farleys, etc…but with a bit of a J. Mascis sounding vocalist. The music is good, but I think the...

Funeral Oration – Discography – 2CD (Hopeless Records) This is a discography of their catalog from 1983-1998. This strikes me as odd since I’ve never heard of them before…OK I know I’m not “Mister Ultimate Music Knowledge”,...

Homemade – What Were We Getting Into, Before We Got Into This? – CD (Theologian Records) The majority of this release is mid-tempo melodic hardcore. One track Lower Plastic 3 am is a horrid song. It’s like the singer and guitarist are playing one song and,...

Liberator - Worldwide Delivery – CD (Epitaph Records) This is some really good ska. The sound is along the lines of Citizen Fish, but with even more of a first wave sound and less of a political stance. Another great disc that’s making me want to skank about the...

Monkey Paw – Hating You is So Easy – CD (Four Alarm Records) This is like a throwback to late 70’s / early 80’s punk rock…the fun stuff that is, not the street punk…actually, it’s closer to new wave, minus the keyboards. It’s like if the Dickies and...

Reverend Horton Heat – Spend A Night in the Box – CD (Time Bomb Recordings / BMG) I have to admit that I have never heard a Reverend Horton Heat song, ever though I have heard of the Rev. So when we got this release in to review something inside of me said...

Snapcase – Designs for Automation – CD (Victory Records) I rarely listen to this type of band anymore and I realized that I miss it. Snapcase is fucking great! This brings back memories of some of the sweat dripping nights I used to spend attending shows...

United – Distorted Vision – CD (Howling Bull America) Another Japanese metal/thrash CD release. You just gotta love the Japanese accent when they sing death or thrash metal. A very heavy and aggressive release for a Japanese band. I hope the kids in Japan...
