Tram – Heavy Black Frame – Review

January 1, 2000

On Heavy Black Frame, London-based Tram transcend the often-tired mope rock vocabulary to compose one of the most stirring and melancholy records of the year.

7 Seconds – Good to Go – Review

January 1, 2000

With Good to Go, the 15+ year old miracle has gone back to their early days for inspiration, and this record is right up there with the classics.

Total Chaos – In God We Kill – Review

January 1, 2000

“Thundering” metal, vocals that sound like the singer’s trying to shit, and even the punk/Oi! anthems falls flat cuz the guitars are outta tune half the time.

Today Is The Day – In the Eyes of God – Review

January 1, 2000

This record is the meanest, most inspirational, morbid, and haunted piece of vile I’ve heard in a long fucking time.

Time Flies – On Our Way – Review

January 1, 2000

Hey, time really does fly. It’s been ten years since Gorilla Biscuits, didn’t you know? Well, neither did Time Flies, from the sound of this record.

Tilt – Viewers Like You – Review

January 1, 2000

Lead vocalist Cinder Block has one of the most powerful voices in punk, so don’t get any cutesy images of, like, No Doubt or Dance Hall Crashers.

Zimmers Hole – Bound By Fire – Review

January 1, 2000

Leave it to Canadian madman Devin Townsend and friends to uncap finger-snapping melodies, eye-blinking noise bursts, and dark metal comedy.

The Zeros – Right Now! – Review

January 1, 2000

The Zeros were mere high school kids when they crashed the early Hollywood underground scene, playing alongside bands like the Germs, X, the Dils, and Weirdos.

The Undecided – Review

January 1, 2000

With songs that sound exactly like quick-picked & palm-muted NOFX and clean, youthful vocals like The Get Up Kids or something, how can you lose?

Zao – Liberate te ex Inferis – Review

January 1, 2000

Zao gives you sadness the way it exists in physical form: unrelenting, claustrophobic, overwhelming, unforgiving, and obese. Evilcore at its most brilliant.
