Zeke – Chiva Knieval – Review

November 1, 1996

Good punk rock guitar screech, scum rock vocals with melody, elements of AC/DC and New Bomb Turks. Fast, energetic, to-the-point, cool.

Vic Firecracker Trio – Orbit / Vic Firecracker Trio split – Review

November 1, 1996

ic Firecracker Trio just sound like shit, on this recording at least. For some reason it makes me think of a garbled Sunny Day Real Estate.

Trunk Foundation – Young Cherry Tree – Review

November 1, 1996

Vomit-inducing shy-boy vocals, the tinkly twang of slow verses that predictably give way to half-heartedly heavy, uncatchy choruses.

Toenut – Danger! Humans Approach” – Review

November 1, 1996

Honey-dipped female vocals set to strange timings and daintily awkward instrumentation can be a very good thing as long as it doesn’t feel forced.

The Ray-Ons – 2 Too Many – Review

November 1, 1996

Sped up garage, Cramps-style. It might be good, it might be bad. I can’t tell ’cause the sound quality’s so poor.

The Maggots – “Staff” / “Uptight” – Review

November 1, 1996

Yet another pop punk record. They go for that crisp mid-’80s sound, with alcohol-drenched melody that steers clear of the trendy ’90s stuff.

The Grumpies – Like Any Other Day – Review

November 1, 1996

Imagine if members of the Queers had two brothers and a sister who formed a band in grade school. Harmless but speedy, juvenile, lo-fidelity punk rock.

Stuntman – Knapsack / Stuntman Split – Review

November 1, 1996

Stuntman (ex-Treepeople, minus Built to Spill’s Doug Martsch) do a catchy number called “Inspiration Please!,” but I’m not sure exactly what it is I’m catching.

Sparkler – “Discover” / “Hey Long Hair” – Review

November 1, 1996

Although the word has been all but outlawed from this magazine, “insipid” is the best adjective for the bland pop of Sparkler.

Sonic Dolls – Sonic Dolls / Boris the Sprinkler split – Review

November 1, 1996

Sonic Dolls play energetic, authentic ’77 buzzsaw punk, and are more than likely the new darlings of MaximumRockNRoll.
