Daredevils – “Hate You” b/w “Rules, Hearts” – Review

June 1, 1996

Former Bad Religion guitar guy Brett Gurewitz rocks out Elvis Costello-style. All the commercial radio catchiness necessary to make this a summer single.

Curdlefur – “Anthemic Tune” – Review

June 1, 1996

Chaotic, melodic, frenzied garage pop that packs a powerful punch. The B-side reminds me of Mission of Burma, the biggest compliment I can give a band.

Madball – Demonstrating My Style – Interview

June 1, 1996

An interview with bassist Hoya Roc

Criminal – Victimized – Review

June 1, 1996

This Chilean band looks and sounds like Arise-era Sepultura. Thrash, thrash, thrash, double bass, riff, and sore throat growl until the cows come home.

Cracker – The Golden Age – Review

June 1, 1996

You can rest assured that your “back in the day” kudos are loaded with enough chemical preservatives to guarantee a long shelf life.

C17H19N03 – Terra Damnata – Review

June 1, 1996

C17H19NO3 is John Bergin from Trust Obey, and his album Terra Damnata expresses his deep need for a good blowjob. Or his imminent suicide. Or both.

Bruce Dickinson – Skunkworks – Review

June 1, 1996

He’s still got the bellowing from the Iron Maiden heyday, he still has that ’80s trademark vibrato, but he’s singing reasonably contemporary rock.

Little John – Derailer – Interview

June 1, 1996

An interview with Seth Freeman, Brenden Taylor, and Stephano Copobianco

Hog – Nothing Sacred – Interview

June 1, 1996

An interview with singer Kirk Miller

Bristle – Won’t Die For You – Review

June 1, 1996

Fast, grubby, gritty and gleefully kickin’ the snot outta the old punk war-horse, as if that’s gonna make it get back up and run the Kentucky Derby and win!
