Indie/Alternative Review

Radar Bros. – Review

October 1, 1997

The Radar Bros. lead us through their labyrinth of apathy, depression, angst and sadness in a blur of rich, spacey, warm sound and it’s a very, very slow ride.

Plexi – Cheer Up – Review

October 1, 1997

It’s sonic sensationalism writ large, full-blown fakery as lush, powerful, melodramatic and meaningless as their platform-shod stomping grounds of Los Angeles.

Pavement – Shady Lane – Review

October 1, 1997

This EP, which features reworked versions of two tracks from their new rec, Brighten the Corners, and three new numbers, has some pretty engaging moments.

Own – Agenda Item 1 – Review

October 1, 1997

Cello, violin, drums. And voice. Rasputina? No, much more rock. Almost… Prog rock. But not so high falutin’. Only three people, but a really big sound.

Mission of Burma – Vs. – Review

October 1, 1997

The only full-length LP recorded during Mission of Burma’s existence, vs. (1982), is the fullest flowering of their harshly lush attack on record.

Lake of Dracula – Review

October 1, 1997

This is what the new Lake of Dracula record brings to mind every time I listen to it. I’m not exactly sure why.

Vaporhead – Review

October 1, 1997

The band has been playing their snotty, sometimes witty, whining, traditional three-chord stylings around New York City for almost two years.

Kenickie – At the Club – Review

October 1, 1997

They sing the word “yeah” 72 freakin’ times in layered harmonies of bratty “nyah-nyah” sing-song. Teen anthems of scathing criticism, tongue-in-cheek fuck-alls.
