13 Engines – Conquistador – Review

March 1, 1996

These engines are driven by the skillful sticks of drummer Grant Ethier, and they’re kept purring by the They Might Be Giants-like vocals of John Critchly.

Limblifter – Review

March 1, 1996

It’s like Oasis, only louder. Hell, they even sound English (but they’re Canadian)! It gives me goosebumps every time the singer wails out nonsensical lyrics.

Jeremy Toback – Review

March 1, 1996

Jeremy Toback is a major talent, a singer-songwriter working within the pop context, but blessed with a sense of grace and style all his own.

Spacemen 3 – Performance – Review

February 1, 1996

The extended version of their ’88 live opus, recorded in Amsterdam in front of what sounds like an audience of three. Swallow this. It’ll make you fly.

Sibera – Damage – Review

February 1, 1996

Spacy liquid pop with enough rough edges and hooks for your ear to get a toehold, textured and ambient but with enough complexity to keep your attention.

Replicants – Review

February 1, 1996

Replicants are part Tool, part Failure, and part Eye in Triangle. Their product is every great song you ever heard sent through the blender of time.
