Global House Culture Vol. 2 – Review

May 1, 1996

GHC Vol. 2 has an exceptionally liquid mix by NY’s cult superstar DJ Frankie Bones and a crystal clear sound. A must for anyone interested in rave culture.

Donna Reed’s Dinner Party – Review

May 1, 1996

Intended for mature young women to play as they served dinner in their fabulous New York apartments, until sneaking off to fuck on the guests’ coats.

Dick Van Dyke’s Dance Party – Review

May 1, 1996

Intended to be the kinda album a swingin’ bachelor (with a good education, a solid day job and well-polished shoes) would throw on the hi-fi on Friday nights.

Vinnie Moore – Out of Nowhere – Review

May 1, 1996

If you enjoy guitar virtuoso stuff and want to bulk up your collection, here’s a bit more.

Amy Arena – Review

May 1, 1996

Amy Arena doesn’t craft interesting phrases or emotional wordplay. She just rambles and bitches about how much men suck and how strong she is for saying so.

Veldt – Universe Boat – Review

May 1, 1996

Remember “Don’t Forget Me When I’m Gone?” Veldt seem dead set on recreating the same kind of wonderbread euro-alterna-soul that made my dentist a rich man.

May 1, 1996

Featuring members of Fudge Tunnel and EyeHateGod, this band puts the heavy back into heavy metal.

Under The Noise – Of Generation and Corruption – Review

May 1, 1996

Fits as easily in your room as the dance club, mixing uptempo grooves with a slow grind, and throwing in some moody ambience as well.

1000 Mona Lisas – New Disease – Review

May 1, 1996

No faux British accent, no green hair, and no teen angst found here. Just 14 punchy rave-ups, including a blistering cover of Paul McCartney and Wings’ “Jet.”

Uncle Jud – Review

May 1, 1996

Berklee-bred technical proficiency applied to yellowing schematics out of the Painfully Sincere Hard Rock 101 textbook.
