Hollywood Rocks! – Review

October 21, 2005

A lot of your favorite ’80s metal, both cool and embarrassing, and a lot of the bands you hated then and now. But they’re demo versions of the songs.

Vans Warped Tour 2004 – Review

March 7, 2005

A compilation of the studio-recorded songs from the bands that were featured on the tour. I’m assuming they did at some point play these songs live.

Tracks and Fields – Review

March 7, 2005

Clocking in at 73:31, we have Tracks. Here we have Fields, bringin’ 74:36 of noise. Let’s get at this like Courtney finding Kathleen Hanna in bed with Kurt.

Rock Against Bush – Vol. 2 – Review

March 7, 2005

Any good hawk knows we have to create a common enemy to garner support for our equally fabricated cause. Well, we have met the enemy, and they is us.

Resurrection 2 – Review

March 7, 2005

An 11-song collection of club/future pop tracks from the WTII Records roster, mastered superbly by Chris Randall (of Sister Machine Gun fame).

Punk-O-Rama – Volume 9 – Review

March 7, 2005

Longest-running series, and a good value. They’re getting harder to discern from each other and the Warped Tour comps, but there’s always a surprise or two.

Old Skars And Upstarts 2004 – Review

March 7, 2005

This comp kicks ass. It’s rare I find a comp I can actually listen to the whole way through. This comp doesn’t have a single bad track.

Hopelessly Devoted To You – Vol. 5 – Review

March 7, 2005

Each year, it seems Hopeless includes fewer punk acts, which means they are less devoted to me, I don’t even know them anymore. We never talk anymore.

Doom Capital – Review

March 7, 2005

Spans four generations of doom from bands. It’s paced well, starts off with a great Clutch tune and continues with new, rare and exclusive tracks

Rock Against Bush – Vol. 1 – Review

October 4, 2004

Social Distortion, The Offspring, and Jello Biafra with DOA are called up from the reserves. Stalwarts NOFX, Pennywise, and Anti-Flag provide dutiful service.
