The Amps – Pacer – Review

February 1, 1996

A side project for Breeders Kim Deal and Jim MacPherson, The Amps are a charming blend of Deal’s sweet-girl vocals on top of drunken garage band vigor.

Happy The Clown – Larvae – Review

February 1, 1996

This is not happy music. It’s fuzzy bass, pseudo-psychedelic distortion and slow industrial sludge. Rough, strange and beautiful, but monotonous.

Fluf – The Classic Years – Review

February 1, 1996

The fattest sound in distorted guitars and deep, heartfelt singing that make me feel like a child getting a big hug by St. Nick every time I listen to Fluf.

Epperly – Review

February 1, 1996

Half the songs ooze through a relaxed Valium groove, while the other half cranks up the distortion for some happy pogoing and head bopping.

Drill – Review

February 1, 1996

Not since Four Non Blondes have I been so moved by vocals. Her bubblegum cute whisper turns into a tormented croak, and the haywire vibrato must be heard.
