Marilyn Manson – with Korn, Danzig at The Sting – Review

June 1, 1995

The man has an almost cult-leaderish quality about him – ice cold eyes and a patronizing manner towards the worshipers. His lyrics are crisp and harsh.

Lars Vegas – with Hollywood Squares, Soilamatic, Soothing Sounds for Babies at the Middle East Cafe – Review

June 1, 1995

If you like tongue-in-cheek-loungelizard-pseudo-jazz, complete with crooning vocals, stand-up bass, xylophone, and sax, nobody does it better than Lars Vegas.

Korn – with Marilyn Manson, Danzig at The Sting – Review

June 1, 1995

Korn merges rap and hardcore, a combo I’m not fond of. A very loud bass and faster, faster drums make good mosh music, but it’s not appropriate for my bedroom.

Hollywood Squares – with Soilamatic, Lars Vegas, Soothing Sounds for Babies at the Middle East Cafe – Review

June 1, 1995

Their set was in keeping with the variety theme of the show – their style varied from rock to blues-funk type stuff, to reggae, including one twangy number.

Faith No More – with Steel Pole Bathtub at Avalon – Review

June 1, 1995

Faith No More stand as one of the most creative, risk-taking bands around, while Mike Patton is one of the most entertaining, diverse talents of our generation.

Everclear – at Babyhead and Local 186 – Review

June 1, 1995

Everclear play live like a 75-watt bulb screwed into an itty bitty book light.

Nick Zedd: Steal This Video – Review

June 1, 1995

During the ’80s, one of the most hated filmmakers in New York was Nick Zedd. Steal This Video is a collection of five of his short films.

Danzig – with Korn, Marilyn Manson at The Sting – Review

June 1, 1995

Danzig, I wouldn’t review you if you were the last band on Earth, and you can shove that “Mother” lyric sheet up your pretentious ass.

Lydia Lunch: Malicious Intent – Review

June 1, 1995

Lydia Lunch was the underground’s favorite diva during the late ’70s and early ’80s, and deservedly so. But you’d never be able to tell from this film.

Expulsion – Overflow – Review

June 1, 1995

Rumblings so low, they sound truly evil. Growling vocals and minor chord progressions lead me to label this as doom without the surreal keyboards.
