Todos tus Muertos – Dale Aborigan – Review

June 1, 1997

Argentina’s version of Bad Brains, Tudos Tus Muertos (All Your Dead) blend hardcore punk, African-tinged reggae, and Latin folkloric rhythms.

Tripface – Some Part Sorrow – Review

June 1, 1997

Tripface’s debut is a must for all hardcore freaks. They jump from melodic, to fast, to experimental, with heaviness and energy all over.

June 1, 1997

Hypersonic Hyperphonic is a mish-mash of Cop Shoot Cop/Nine Inch Nails hybrid nightmares and we-really-like-Killing-Joke throwaways.

June 1, 1997

There’s a raft of B-sides, EP-only tracks, and previously unreleased numbers from their Dial-A-Song archives. That’s seventy-two itty-bitty tunes in all.
