Tokyo Trashville! – Review

December 1, 1997

The liner notes to this Tokyo garage rock comp give the impression that the sheer hideousness of the Japanese pop scene inspired most of these bands to form.

The Ska Zone – Review

December 1, 1997

Maybe the underlying theme was the ska twilight zone. Maybe the scary coincidence is that all of these ska bands played sci-fi metal instead of ska.

The Duran Duran Tribute Album – Review

December 1, 1997

Near the end of “Rio,” Goldfinger switches from ska to Dio’s “Rainbow in the Dark,” both in rhythm and vocal melodies, yet keeps the lyrics to “Rio” intact.

Poptopia! ‘70s Power Pop – Review

December 1, 1997

People who like power pop probably like Cheap Trick, but when asked, they say they like Big Star. The bands selected are totally misrepresented here.

The Vibrators – We Vibrate – Review

December 1, 1997

“Baby Baby” and “London Girls,” from this pseudo-greatest hits collection, are straightforward, unabashed love songs, more Dave Clark Five than Buzzcocks.

The Other – Review

December 1, 1997

Part jellybean, part prog rock, part punkpop anthem, The Other deserves their name.
