Limblifter – Review

March 1, 1996

It’s like Oasis, only louder. Hell, they even sound English (but they’re Canadian)! It gives me goosebumps every time the singer wails out nonsensical lyrics.

Jeremy Toback – Review

March 1, 1996

Jeremy Toback is a major talent, a singer-songwriter working within the pop context, but blessed with a sense of grace and style all his own.

Spacemen 3 – Performance – Review

February 1, 1996

The extended version of their ’88 live opus, recorded in Amsterdam in front of what sounds like an audience of three. Swallow this. It’ll make you fly.

Squirtgun – Review

February 1, 1996

Bassist Mass Giorgini comments, “We wanted something that had an energetic sound, something that captured the brattiness of a little kid.”

Sicko – Chef Boy R U Dumb – Review

February 1, 1996

Infectious, bubblegum, “pep-rally” punk with goofy lyrics that should prompt many giggles. A cross between Green Day and the 1910 Fruitgum Company.

Sibera – Damage – Review

February 1, 1996

Spacy liquid pop with enough rough edges and hooks for your ear to get a toehold, textured and ambient but with enough complexity to keep your attention.

Shoveljerk – Swarm – Review

February 1, 1996

Shoveljerk has powerful melodies, well-developed song structures, a solid drummer and bass player, and interesting guitar interplay.
