Bis – This is Teen-C Power – Review

April 1, 1997

Initially, “kill yr boyfriend” struck me as yummy bubblegummy Hot Damn! with cutesy-pie squealing and “yeah, yeah, yeah!” male choruses to round out the sound.

Biofeedback – Incision – Review

April 1, 1997

Part Leather Strip, part Spahn Ranch, and part Ministry (albeit a small part). Their layers of samples and sequences are interesting.

Bill Janovitz – Lonesome Billy – Review

April 1, 1997

The debut solo album from Buffalo Tom voice Bill Janovitz is rife with countrified, down ‘n’ out sing-a-longs. A decidedly lo-fi affair.

Beck – Stereopathic – Review

April 1, 1997

Like Origin of Species, a haphazard genealogy littered with low-fi fossils of noise-folk, folk-noise, softcore punk, slide-rule guitar, gut-busting silliness.

Tony Mentzer – Smell My Finger – Review

April 1, 1997

This just seems like an amateurish and juvenile attempt at humor. Zappa for the Butthead generation? Beefheart toned down to the Beavis level?

The Lemonheads – It’s All True EP – Review

April 1, 1997

I’ve never much cared for Evan Dando’s faux slacker romanticism, but I do give him credit for his choice of cover songs.

Swell – Too Many Days Without Thinking – Review

April 1, 1997

A guitar-driven, moody atmosphere, adding layers, then taking them away. The words, embedded in Freel’s smooth, low voice, mingle with saturated basslines.

Squirrel Bait – Squirrel Bait/Skag Heaven – Review

April 1, 1997

Searcy sounds less crazed, the guitars and drums are more orderly, the song lengths more typical, the lyrics spelled out carefully on the inner sleeve.

Skeleton Key – Fantastic Spikes Through Balloon – Review

April 1, 1997

Some pretty odd music, but Fantastic Spikes… has enough hooks and recognizable “song” elements to appeal to even only slightly adventurous listeners.

Nipper! – Review

April 1, 1997

Has a lot in common with the first coupla Silver Jews records (except there’s more Malkmus and less Berman) and pre-“Cut Your Hair” Pavement in general.
