Creepy Crawl Live – Review

June 1, 1997

Fifteen New York heavyweights, all live. You name it, Murphy’s Law, Warzone, Ensign, Cold Front, H2O, they’re all here.

Crown of Thornz – Mentally Vexed – Review

February 1, 1997

The music is a perfect example of everything that was good in New York’s hardcore heyday; melodic, heavy, and influential.

Loudspeaker – Re-Vertebrate – Review

September 1, 1996

Loudspeaker has more in common with funk than punk, noise, or hardcore, and as far as the grooves go, they’re pretty soulless.

Murphy’s Law – Dedicated – Review

August 1, 1996

They’re still good at what they do best, playing fast, tight, concise punk songs splashed with humor.

Both Worlds – Beyond Zero Gravity – Review

May 1, 1996

Backed by the capable Leeway, the former voice of the Cro-Mags retains his vocal power and attitude with this release.

Leeway – Born To Expire/Desperate Measures – Review

April 1, 1996

Another NYHC retrospective/compilation from Another Planet brings us the wacky Leeway. Leeway’s material has always been more metal than hardcore.

The Mob – No Rules In This Game – Review

March 1, 1996

Before the New York hardcore sound came to be regarded as a permanent piss stain on popular culture, The Mob were among the loudest and fastest of the crew.

Skarhead – Drugs, Money, Sex – Review

February 1, 1996

In order to preserve the old-school style, members of Crown of Thornz, Madball, Maximum Penalty, and H2O got together and created Skarhead. Fast and furious.

Home 33 – Jody’s Coterie – Review

February 1, 1996

These guys rock, groove, and slam with their own style and innovations. Sort of like Orange 9mm on acid, with the result being definitely hard at its core.

Stanley – Clobbered – Review

November 1, 1995

The sort of band that badly Xeroxed cut-and-paste ‘zines love to ramble on about. Their sound is too Seattle to be sludge-punk, but too Chicago to be grunge.
