September 1, 1996

Out of obscurity comes God Cries with all the devastating potential Asphyx had at the start. It’s good to hear old scensters make a great album.

20 tracks from the likes of The Queers, Capitalist Casualties, The Freeze, New Bomb Turks, 88 Fingers Louie, Naked Aggression, Rhythm Collision, etc.

Joint Ventures in Ska – Review

August 1, 1996

A tribute to marijuana. A lot of big-names here: The Selecter, Bim Skala Bim, Bad Manners, Scofflaws, Buck O Nine, and Skinnerbox NYC, among others.
