Cold – Cold – CD (A&M Records) This band reminds me of Tool if Gavin from Bush was singing, but not as whiny. I wonder if this guy is a cute as Gavin. Fairly dark heavy music almost gothic metal, but more rock-leaning with an industrial influence. A...

Susan Didrichsen – Soul Sex – CD (WEF Records) The title of this release does a good job of describing what you will get when you put in your CD player. It’s like Melissa Ethridge meets Tina Turner singing sexy soul rock muisc. The smooth vocals and music...

Smatch – Smatch – 7″ First off this has one of the most unique covers I have ever seen. It’s a layout for a cover, with a place for the band logo and picture. It even includes assembly instructions and two different photos to choose from. Fun....
