Hot Rods to Hell Vol.II – Review

November 1, 1998

While Pulp Fiction and Rob Zombie’s new Zombie A Go-Go Records may be pushing reverb-heavy garage surf as the new wave for the kids, I just don’t buy it.

P. Paul French – The Disease – Review

November 1, 1998

I dunno if P Paul Fenech, the leader of Brit psychobilly hotheads, the Meteors, feels like he’s blazin’ new paths with his new solo album.

Horse Nation: A Tribute to the Cult – Review

November 1, 1998

I’ll give ’em points for originality: Taking unknown bands from many genres and letting them pour it out, paying tribute to a great, spiritual rock band.

Pitchshifter – www.pitchshifter.com – Review

November 1, 1998

Two of my favorite elements have finally been united: crunchy, punk rock riffs and skull-shaking jungle beats.

Hopelessly Devoted to You too – Review

November 1, 1998

With ten unreleased songs and a slew of good bands, at $4, this sampler is definitely worth the bucks.

Perfume Tree – Feeler – Review

November 1, 1998

Lush soundscapes with heavenly vocals gently stirred in.

Here Comes the Drums – Review

November 1, 1998

The requisite drum’n’bass beats, but also the scratching used in early techno, and catchy, almost natural-sounding piano chords and belted out soul singing.

Paul Gilbert – King of Clubs – Review

November 1, 1998

Buzzes comfortably on a shelf populated by Cheap Trick, Enuff Z’nuff, Elvis Costello, and Joe Jackson records, with punctuations of light-speed Zappa zaps.

Parasites – Rat Ass Pie – Review

November 1, 1998

Parasites are one of those bands most of us into melodic punk would list as a damn fine band if the list were a little longer.

Addict – Stones – Review

November 1, 1998

One might expect Addict to be an over-edited, neatly-trimmed shadow specially selected for its exemplary darkness and ideally stereotypical angst.
