April 18, 2003

A two-DVD, career-long collection of videos. The material is outstanding, with a generous helping of impossible-to-track down TV broadcasts of early songs.

Planet X – MoonBabies – Review

April 16, 2003

Less metal than one might expect, MoonBabies ventures deep into the night with a lush landscape of sounds that incorporate prog rock, jazz, and New Age.

The Shakedowns – Move – Review

February 14, 2003

Assemblage 23 – Defiance – Review

February 14, 2003
