nd is a beautifully haunting, haunted collection. Songs are treated with respect, but without the sycophantic reverence that makes most tribute albums bores.
Eight bands on the Flipside label are recorded live at the company desert party. The bands who held my attention were Babyland, Kryptonite Nixon, Paper Tulips.
Hairball has put out some very good bands. This compilation has them all together on one disc. From blues to pop to rock to booze-filled Neil Diamond covers.
One of the heaviest bands on one of the most shitty-sounding records you’ve ever heard! Compiles unreleased and hard-to-find songs into a smorgasbord of sludge.
I don’t love Whale so much as lust after them. The frontwoman of the threesome has an almost David Byrne-like charisma and a voluptuous lemon juice squeal.
Well-executed take on the alt.rock thing. The songs rely on the traditional verse/chorus scheme, but take each idea a step further to create a new synthesis.
