G. Love & Special Sauce – Coast To Coast Motel – Review

September 1, 1995

More slacker rap, with the ever-popular upright bass. As a bonus, they play some tracks that sound like Dixieland blues, complete with tuba and trombone.

You Be You – Review

September 1, 1995

What record company “people” might think is “easily accessible.” Well-written, well-played, well-produced pop, with a few interesting tidbits here and there.

Fracture – Proper Burial – Review

September 1, 1995

Aggressive beats, distorted vocals, and plenty of electronics. There’s something that makes them rise to the top. Their samples are creative and interesting.

Foo Fighters – Review

September 1, 1995

No, it doesn’t reach the heights of Nirvana’s best stuff, but there are moments when it comes damn close.

Worst Case Scenario – Review

September 1, 1995

Zero melody, sloppy crunch guitars that chug punk rock riffs like a ’78 Trans Am whose engine is still going strong long after the frame has rusted out.

Foetus – Nail – Review

September 1, 1995

Nail explored the extremes that Hole hinted at, with classical samples, jarring noises of scraping metal and human pain, and guitar blasts.

Wizo – Uuaarrgh! – Review

September 1, 1995

Fun punkpop in German! A coupla love songs, a coupla pissed off songs, and a slew of anti-government, anti-religion, anti-fascist songs.

Foetus – Hole – Review

September 1, 1995

Using electronic percussion, sheet metal, and pop culture destruction, Jim Thirwell produced an album as humorous as it was self-destructively nihilistic.

W.O.C.C. – Review

September 1, 1995

Juicy funk groove. The vocals are great, but I hate deliberate lo-fi recording, especially for lead vox. The guitarist is interesting and an individual.

Total Sexual Freedom – Dream Story – Review

September 1, 1995

The tape smokes with manic funk-rock, searing solos, and energetic vocals. The uptempo songs scream out of my speakers.
