Bottom – You’rNext – Review

June 13, 2005

Blue Rose Liar – Sycamore – Review

June 13, 2005

They emanate the flow of Quicksand, Kiss It Goodbye, and the manic flare of Today Is The Day, but under underneath it all is rage, melody, and uncertainty.

Axehandle – Review

June 13, 2005

All three members of Axehandle are also in Alabama Thunderpussy, but Axehandle doesn’t really sound anything like ATP.

Coliseum – Goddamage – Review

June 8, 2005

Noisy, tuff, and melodic like a muscle car idling. An eight-song EP. A band fronted by Black Cross/Initial Records dude, Ryan Patterson.

Clutch – Robot Hive Exodus- Review

June 8, 2005

Stupid name aside, this sucker’s got soul, brother. Got that vintage keyboard thing going, and both boogie and funk. And Neil really belts it out.

Blei – In Day As Dark – Review

June 8, 2005

To exaggerate, it’s like Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazlewood, or Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore. There’s a guy and girl singing, and they play opposite roles.
