V/A – The Poo Poo Platter – CD (ADD Records) The CD is filled with a few good tunes and much scatological musings. Wasn’t too bad, until the end with the a cappella version of “All the Bad Songs” by Blink 180 Poo. The parody was bad enough with music. A...

V/A – Transmission Four – CD (Space 380 Music) This is the fourth comp released by Space 380 (hence the name of the disc). I think that this is one of the better comps that I’ve heard. It has a variety of bands, but not to wide of a range that they don’t...

V/A – Vans Warped Tour: 2001 Comp. – CD (Side One Dummy Records) The Warped Tour has been around for a while, and while it’s not to the point of commercialism that Lollapalooza became, it seems to be gaining popularity among the kids who tend to enjoy...

V/A – Best of the Millennium: Top 40 Classical Hits – 2 CD (Universal Classics) OK, I’ll bet that most of you reading these reviews don’t like listening to classical music (even if you like it on Bugs Bunny). However, I like quite a bit of it and this is a...

V/A – Gothic Club Classics – 2 CD (SPV) This disc starts off with one of the first goth songs I ever heard. I was just beginning to discover college radio and I had popped in a tape one night to record WWSU. The first song I caught was “Wasteland” by The...

V/A – Coal Miner’s Daughter – CD (Milan Records) I’m not a huge fan of country music. However, there are a few country singers that have that something special that puts them above the rest. Loretta Lynn is one of them. This is the soundtrack...

V/A – Bottled Violence – CD (Out of Step Records) 30 tracks of pure punk fun can be found on this little disk. There are so many great bands on this release, it’s hard to pick out my favorites, but I guess I’ll give it a try. Tsunami Bomb, 3rd Man In,...
