Bad Lieutenants – Every Time I Come Around – Review

March 2, 2007

“They play punk-infused arena rock like retarded hillbillies.” Like porn-obsessed faves the Dwarves, their carnal cravings and musical leanings seem the same.

The Methadones – This Won’t Hurt – Review

March 1, 2007

It’s mind-boggling how many sugary-sweet pop punk tunes Dan Schafer (Dan Vapid) has penned or played. Screeching Weasel, Riverdales, and now The Methadones.

Fishbone – Still Stuck In Your Throat – Review

March 1, 2007

I worshiped the self-titled EP and Truth and Soul. While this has moments, like The Specials, I want to leave them be, with a legacy of greatness.

Bull Lee – 377 77n8 – Review

March 1, 2007

Singer is a hot chick who’ll kick your ass and the sleaze punk is ground out by guys sweating their balls off. Best tunes are the bottle-throwing party tunes.

The Nipples – Weekend Toys – Review

February 16, 2007

The singer is actually male, he’s got a little bit of a Dead Milkmen/Jerry Lewis thing going on, but they love it in France, and that’s good enough for me.

The Eastpak Resistance Tour – Volume III – Review

February 16, 2007

Documents the latest chapter in one of Europe’s most successful hardcore tours. Featuring Sick Of It All, 7 Seconds, Slapshot, Unearth, and more.

The Matches – Decomposer – Review

February 9, 2007

Nine. That’s the number of producers on Decomposer. It helps emphasize their ability to seamlessly transfer from goofy and gross to soulful and serious.

Fuck the System – Review

January 5, 2007

As a tattoo-covered punk scumbag, Rob Rotten has taking punks, skaters, and skins to places Suicide Girls wouldn’t dare.

Pss Sht F*ck – Use Your Delusion – Review

January 1, 2007

Newly recorded versions of the highlights of this chaos punk band’s downward spiral. Loud, noisy, screamy, fast, dangerous.

Phantom Rockers – 20 Years and Still Kicking – Review

January 1, 2007

Psychobilly from the UK, moved to Texas and formed a U.S. line-up. It’s real pyschobilly, not a punk band on meth. Fast and reverbed, stand-up bass, the works.
