Los Infernos – Rock and Roll Nightmare – Review

June 1, 2000

Rock And Roll Nightmare is pretty much straight up punk rock’n’roll, they just knock ’em back balls out crazy-man style, ‘kay?

SNFU – The Ping Pong EP – Review

April 1, 2000

The truth is that a bagel is just a bad fuckin’ doughnut, and I never really liked SNFU.

Lard – ‘70s Rock Must Die – Review

April 1, 2000

If you long for plodding, Ministry industrial, here’s more of it. Only instead of Al’s distorto cowboy rants, you get Jello’s unmistakable warble.

Los Infernos – “The Outlaw” / “Beer Run” – Review

June 1, 1999

It’s almost a throwback to Restless Records’ ’80s heyday as the headquarters for hopelessly glossy metallic thrashabilly.

Queen Bee – “Fine” / “Smitten” – Review

June 1, 1999

Lotsa ponderous bass bashing/kit slamming punch over which Karen Neal warbles all over the place like a honey bee on solvents.

Hellworms – Crowd Repellent – Review

April 1, 1999

Ex-Victims Family/Saturn’s Flea Collar folk, Ralph Spight and Larry Boothroyd, join up with drummer Joaquin Spengemann to produce some rockin’ brainy prog punk.

Ultra Bide – Super Milk – Review

November 1, 1998

I read a review where the writer complained how he was “tired of the same old punk rock shit” like Ultra Bidé. I dunno what record that guy was listenin’ to.

Zen Guerrilla – Positronic Raygun – Review

September 1, 1998

This mutation of Isaac Hayes, Chuck Berry, Howlin’ Wolf, Chambers Brothers, and the Cramps is something no self-respectin’ rock’n’roll fan should be without.

Zen Guerrilla – Invisible ‘Liftee’ Pad/ Gap-tooth Clown – Review

June 1, 1997

“Go buy this record,” cos you should hear it for yerself and decide if you like yer skin crawlin’ and the hairs a-standin’ up on the back of yer neck.

Buzzkill – Up – Review

February 1, 1997

Up is supermegabonus punk. There’s even a cover of “Hellbent for Leather.” It will drive the rats from your house and make the neighbors’ kids start screaming.
