Six Finger Satellite – Machine Cuisine – Review May 1, 1995 The RI boys have put down their guitars and headed for Moogs. What they’ve become is Kraftwerk for the ’90s. My new favorite band.
Scud Mountain Boys – Dance The Night Away – Review May 1, 1995 Perfect for those who want to find some balance in their CD collection. The lead and backing vocals are reminiscent of Lou Reed and John Cale.
Scatterfield – When You Were Here – Review May 1, 1995 While twangy vocals are not my fave, this REM-clone has a sizable Boston following. Rich production and good songcraft. It’s just been done many times before.
Satchel – EDC – Review May 1, 1995 The majority of this album is Seattle groove rock reduced to its most dull denominator.
PJ Harvey – To Bring You My Love – Review May 1, 1995 To Bring You My Love has a less noisy, more accessible feel than the previous three albums, but her attitude is, if anything, more caustic than ever.
Pet UFO – My Name is Esther Cohen – Review May 1, 1995 A constant motormouth of distorted guitars and Souci Broskowitz’s hurt/pissed-off vocals make Pet UFO one of my personal favorites.
Pell Mell – Interstate – Review May 1, 1995 This instrumental collection moodily shifts from one focus to another as effortlessly as clouds drift across a brilliant blue sky.
Motherless Children – Review May 1, 1995 One of the best drawing bands from the Lowell area. Energetic and well-crafted rock songs with good lyrics and catchy melodies.
Morning Glories – Fully Loaded – Review May 1, 1995 This is what you listen to while you trash your room.
Moonpools and Caterpillars – Lucky Dumpling – Review May 1, 1995 Not surprisingly, this is cute pop with a female singer. Kinda dippy, kinda trippy, infectiously energetic.
