Liquid Gang – Nineteenth Soul – Review

September 1, 1999

Hip-hop/metal mixed with the strolling riffs and powerful melodies of grunge metal. Limp Bizkit meets Godsmack for you new kids on the metal block.

The Muffs – Alert Today Alive Tomorrow – Interview

September 1, 1999

An interview with Kim Shattuck

Limp – Fine Girl – Review

September 1, 1999

While they’re not a lot different from everyone else playing pop/punk these days, “Dork” is a song I’ll be playing and putting on mixed tapes for friends.

Likehell – More – Review

September 1, 1999

Minneapolis’ Likehell have their fingers in a couple pies, since “metal” has been the adjective tagged on them almost as much as “sounds kinda like Weezer.”

Leatherface – Cherry Knowle – Review

September 1, 1999

Frankie’s nicotine-soaked vocals speak volumes of melancholy and youthfulness at the same time. Punk rock doesn’t get much more moving than this.

Leatherface – Hot Water Music – Review

September 1, 1999

Six hoarse-throated, emotionally-charged punk anthems, keeping with the ol’ Leatherface tradition by pumping as much soul as speed into the songs.

Lacuna Coil – In a Reverie – Review

September 1, 1999

Layered, belted-out female vocals punctuated by a growling guy. It’s not Goth enough to be Goth, and not brutal enough to be metal. Your parents will like it.

Paola & Chiara – Giornata storica – Review

September 1, 1999

It’s tempting to say that Giornata is more of a rock album with the guitars more pronounced this time around, but the melodies are even catchier.

KMFDM – Adios – Review

September 1, 1999

KMFDM’s 10th and final album is a fine farewell to a band that created and defined a style called “hard electronic dance music.” Like I need to tell you that.

The Blasting Boom – Review

September 1, 1999

Not every track is award-winning and there are some omissions, but there are plenty of unreleased tracks from damn good bands that make this worth picking up.
