Swank – “Superfly” – Review

March 1, 1995

Malachite reforms (again) playing new roles and carrying a new banner: Swank. It’s slow, mean, heavy and pissed off.

Roadsaw – Roadsaw / Grind – “Gorgeous” / “The Sickest Ride” – Review

March 1, 1995

Roadsaw rocks, as usual. Big, fat bass, rambling, distorted guitar and chill rocker vocals.

Grind – Roadsaw / Grind split – “Gorgeous” / “The Sickest Ride” – Review

March 1, 1995

“Gorgeous” is more gregarious girl grrr from Grind. Grungy, with a Gothic chorus.

Powerman 5000 – True Force – Interview

December 1, 1994

An interview with vocalist Spider

Roadsaw – “Fancy Pants” / “Handed You Your Ass” – Review

October 1, 1994

Tim Katz, Craig Riggs, Steve Malone manage to roll early Kiss, Sabbath, and Clash influences head-on into the neighborhood of Kyuss and Supersuckers.

Jennifer Trynin – with Tracy Bonham, Velveteen, Grind, Sextiles at The Middle East Cafe – Review

September 1, 1994

Jennifer Trynin played tight and fast. Jennifer broke into some funky riffs and strange chords with lots of distortion tricks. She’s got a low, strong voice.

Black Salad – Amatuers of Reality – Review

September 1, 1994

A Sabbath tribute. A Boston supergroup side project: Bob Daley (Chloe), John Queenan (454 Big Block), Jeff Turlick (Stompbox), and Tim Catz (Roadsaw).

Grind – with Tracy Bonham, Velveteen, Jennifer Trynin, Sextiles at The Middle East Cafe – Review

September 1, 1994

Not clean or intricate but powerful and catchy. A powerful if uncomplicated noise. Deserving of the headliner’s slot.

Velveteen – with Tracy Bonham, Sextiles, Grind, Jennifer Trynin at The Middle East Cafe- Review

September 1, 1994

Heavy keyboard filled in the guitar blanks and lent a bit of distinction to their sound (a la Stone Roses/Charolette’s Wheel). Musically familiar.

Tracy Bonham – with Velveteen, Sextiles, Grind, Jennifer Trynin at The Middle East Cafe – Review

September 1, 1994

Tracy Bonham performed catchy and sing-songy songs that were girly and cute but began to get on your nerves with the politely timed “yelp” chorus.
