Sunnychar – You’re My Battery – Review

May 1, 1995

Fuck Shonen Knife, Japan is a whole country full of adorable females who play wonderfully fun, bouncy punk rock. Sunnychar are one of the best I’ve heard.

Notary Public – with Moodcrush at The Middle East Cafe – Review

May 1, 1995

Notary Public plays a lot louder and more animately than the Goth hype and CD would have you expect. This is a very live-oriented band.

Swank – Gutless Crap for Drunk Teens – Interview

May 1, 1995

An interview with singer/guitarist Janet Egan

Sugar Ray – Lemonade and Brownies – Review

May 1, 1995

Looping samples, strolling fat man bass, mountains of metal guitars, and track upon track of screaming vocal with the hip-hop beats weaving it together.

Splendorbin – “Strasserland” – Review

May 1, 1995

Reminds me of the very first Lookout! singles, like Isocracy and Crimpshrine. Upbeat, kiddie crayon drawing graphics, a somewhat hippie-dippie version of punk.

Monster Magnet- Dopes to Infinity – Interview

May 1, 1995

An interview with Dave Wyndorf

Moodcrush – with Notary Public at The Middle East Cafe – Review

May 1, 1995

The singer’s got a wild range. Solos galore and powerchords strung together with charming hair tosses. Rich harmonies and loud, chunky guitars.

Speedball – Do Unto Others, Then Split – Review

May 1, 1995

A balls-out blast from the rock ‘n’ roll past. Elements of The Wildhearts with Stone Temple vocals mixed together with heavy chords and harmonies.

Sourpuss – Rocket Day – Review

May 1, 1995

Peppy, punky guitar rock with gobs of sing-songy back up vocals. The vocalist has a weird voice, kinda baby talk, but it works.

Soup or Grover – Review

May 1, 1995

Indie pop at it’s most glorious. Rich guitars and rocking drums with some really weird lyrics about Forrest Gump and chicken.
