Nightstick – Death to Music – Review

January 1, 2000

Nightstick construct a wall of noisy hate with huge chunks of distorted guitar and not much else. This is nowhere near as hedonistic as Electric Wizard, though.

Natas – Cuidad de Brahman – Review

January 1, 2000

There’s an aura of Pink Floydian haze over this, a pensive kinda pained stroll that’s David Gilmour’s interpretation of blues.

January 1, 2000

Were you to see a Supersuckers’ “To Do” list, it would probably look something like this: Rock. Fuck. Drugs. Fun. I’m not so sure about the order.

Mark Lanegan- I’ll Take Care of You – Review

January 1, 2000

His songs are folk ballads in the classic sense, but they refuse to wallow in the “woe is me” solipsism that makes most modern folk music the bore that it is.

January 1, 2000

Face of Anger – Faceless – Review

January 1, 2000

Electric Wizard – Come my Fanatics… – Review

September 1, 1999
