Garrison – The Model – Review

August 27, 2003

It’s taken Garrison three full-lengths worth of struggle to finally sharpen their machete pop on an EP. The band’s most cohesive songwriting to date.

Thistle – Tired Anchor – Review

August 16, 2003

Thistle ride the melodic “swish” of ringing cymbals and fuzzy guitars, not so much overpowering you but slowly ebbing away at the senses with patience.

August 16, 2003

The Forms might be from NY, but they sound like they would fit in better amongst the Midwest kindred spirits of Riddle of Steel and Ring, Cicada.

Nada Surf – Let Go – Review

August 16, 2003

Uncle Tupelo – No Depression – Review

August 16, 2003
