The Agony Scene – Review

March 1, 2004

Moments of fearsome noise here, howls from hell, stuttering riffs to make you look foolish if you try to snap your fingers to it, and plenty of jaw-dropping moments.

Surrounded – Safety in Numbers – Review

March 1, 2004

One aural peak into Safety in Numbers and you’ll chalk up another victory for the icy country, as drums crack like burning wood, and synths backfire like classic Mercury Rev.

Denali – The Instinct – Review

February 23, 2004

Denali create boring, lifeless, meandering songs out of seemingly perfect elements. Much better than the debut, but it still tips toward style over substance.

Delerium – Chimera – Review

February 23, 2004

World-music-meets-trip-hop, but safe. Chimera is lush, inoffensive, pretty, and desperately looking for a Volkswagon commercial to tie into.

Danko Jones – Born a Lion – Review

February 23, 2004

Good’n’soulful, the riffs are AC/DC, some of the mid-song chatter is laughably Nugent (think “Wango Tango”), and most is served straight-up butt-boogie.

Clan of Xymox – Farewell – Review

February 23, 2004

Blazing club-driven songs sit side by side with the atmospheric Sisters of Mercy/Love and Rockets-sounding songs. They break new ground with lush soundscapes.
