June 1, 2000

You can tell “Mod” is in when an emo band now sounds like it’s trying to grab the scraps from MC5, the Stooges, and The Jam. This just sounds forced to me.

Speed Dial – Keca’m – Review

June 1, 2000

Remember how you felt the first time you heard Queensrÿche’s “Silent Lucidity”? Speed Dial draws on that same self-examining power and stir the soul waters.

Uz Jsme Doma – Ears – Review

June 1, 2000

I may’ve seen these Zappa/Residents meets Voodoo Glow Skulls freaks a few years back (I can’t think of there bein’ another Czech prog-ska band in existence).

Shiner – Starless – Review

June 1, 2000

A discordant sense of melody that somehow works, a liver-than-a-live drum sound, and positive art school experimentations. Original and pleasing heavy rock.

Urban Dance Squad – Artantica – Review

June 1, 2000

They beat Rage Against The Machine to the rock’n’hip hop punch and were more funky. “Deeper Shade of Soul” was the genre’s finest, except for Paul’s Boutique.
