Kristeen Young – Meet Miss Young and Her All Boy Band – Review

April 1, 1997

No mere ripoff, she’s got the voice and the ideas to pull off her debut album. She throws in strange notes, odd breaks, and fractured harmonies.

Meathead – Cop Shoot Cop – Dick Smoker Plus – Review

February 1, 1997

Meathead and Cop Shoot Cop remix songs by each other, but still can’t disguise the fact that the songs aren’t very interesting.

February 1, 1997

The album’s strong points are the tangible rainy day ambience it produces, the honesty of its well-sung lyrics, and the clear but distant production.

Los Ass-Draggers – Abbey Roadkill – Review

February 1, 1997

21 songs crammed into 22 minutes of eye-bulgin’, sweat-stinkin’, raw-throat-hollerin’, jacked-to-the-limit, speed-thrills good times.
