Gumshoe – Review December 1, 1994 The Gearin brothers press on. The six new tunes from the prolific pair don’t break new ground, but compete admirably.
Grant Lee Buffalo – Mighty Joe Moon – Review December 1, 1994 The band continues to explore its distinctive blend of ethereal, somber folk and big, ungodly noise.
Shaggahss – Word Around Town – Review December 1, 1994 Pass me a pint, lads! Love the Pogues? Black 47? Run to the next Shaggahs show.
The Psychedelic Furs – Here Came the Psychedelic Furs-B-sides and Lost Grooves – Review December 1, 1994 A collection of B-sides, dance remixes, and promo tracks that attempts to explore the diversities of the band.
Seven With One Blow – Review December 1, 1994 Sorta Primus, sorta Powerman. A band that would sound great in a club. Tight rhythm section, monster bassist.
A Christmas w/Fr. Titus Modiano – Review December 1, 1994 The Carols Grimm; this home demo brought out my own sick darkness for the holidays. Die, Santa, die.
Beyond Id – We’re Out Of Cornflakes F.U. – Review December 1, 1994 From Western Mass comes We’re Out of Cornflakes, F.U., a compilation of video singles and other assorted film bits by alternative poppers Beyond Id.
Dink – Review December 1, 1994 Average guitar-driven techno fare. Not the kind of stuff that leaves a real strong impression, although the album’s lead-off sample is one of the year’s best.
Deniros – Kill – Review December 1, 1994 Cute name, but sorry, this one fell flat. Same ol’ same ol’ guitar rock tunes. Gary Cherone’s production didn’t help.
Chris Connelly – Shipwreck – Review December 1, 1994 Chris Connelly’s self-indulgent singer/songwriter abilities should be kept in the lounge, where they belong.
