Cathedral – The Carnival Bizarre – Review

November 1, 1995

I seem to recall liking their first album, but The Carnival Bizarre is just gloomy post-Sabbath cheese with a metal growler.

Silencer – “Fear And Drinking” – Review

October 1, 1995

Silencer’s “Fear And Drinking” single is… noise pop. Alternating between comfortable, light-hearted verses and thunderous verses. A band to watch.

Coalesce – 002 – Review

October 1, 1995

This is one of the most aggressive and ferocious bands I’ve heard in a while. I can see why a death label would be interested in them.

Anal Cunt – Top 40 Hits – Review

June 1, 1995

Noise core to the extreme. They do “covers” like “Escape (the Piña Colada Song),” and the most killer version of “American Woman” ever committed to tape.

Scorn – Ellipsis – Review

June 1, 1995

Scorn’s Ellipsis is a follow-up remix album of Evanescence. Dark industrial dub music.

Misery Loves Co. – Review

May 1, 1995

The crushing riffs, mechanized drums, cruel rhythms and agonized vox are all there, but MLC can tone it down with smooth and sorrowful vocals.

Extreme Noise Terror – Retrobution – Review

April 1, 1995

Brutal grindcore done with an early Discharge motif. E.N.T. shirk the Napalm Death/Cryptic Slaughter hyperspeed drumming for the Motörhead locomotive sound.

Pitch Shifter – The Remix War – Review

March 1, 1995

The Remix War is a collection of remixes from Desensitized done by members of Biohazard, Therapy?, and Gunshot as well as Pitch Shifter themselves.

Bolt Thrower – …For Victory – Review

February 1, 1995

Crushing everything in its path like a tank plowing blindly through friend and foe, Bolt Thrower is coming.

Fudge Tunnel – The Complicated Futility of Ignorance – Review

December 1, 1994

The power they emit is unsettling. There isn’t a death metal act on the earth that FT couldn’t rival in intensity and sheer force of ear assault.
