Fu Manchu – King of the Road – CD (Mammoth Records) Two words: desert metal. Good stuff for in the car. Fu Manchu create hard rock California skater style. The album reminds me a little bit of Monster Magnet’s “Powertrip.” - Fibi Mutant...

Long Beach Dub Allstars – Right Back – CD (Dreamworks Records) I would have expected better from the former members of Sublime. This CD is shoddily done and belittles the talents of these musicians. It’s not really ska; it’s not really rap ?...
