The Lot Six – Animals – Review

May 30, 2003

Some tunes that shake hands with Jade Tree emo, or bang on bits of 120 Minutes stuff and half-remembered Pixies riffs, or a melody from Mom’s Beatles records.

May 30, 2003

May 16, 2003

Straight-up rock record. Like Trail Of Dead, Love Battery, Hitting Birth, early Smashing Pumpkins, and other worthies that don’t heft as metal or splat as punk.
