The Damage Manual – Review

June 3, 2001

Take the four most innovative musicians of the post-punk wasteland of the mid-’80s, and use their body of work as a launching point. You get The Damage Manual.

Opium Jukebox – Music to Download Pornography By – Review

June 3, 2001

Drugged-out versions of Gary Numan’s “Cars,” NIN’s “Head Like A Hole,” Soft Cell’s “Tainted Love,” Devo’s “Whip It,” and Dead or Alive’s “You Spin Me.”

Meg Lee Chin – Junkies and Snakes – Review

June 3, 2001

Junkies and Snakes has this industrial/rock feel, lotsa noisy, angry sounds, and Meg can shriek rather chillingly as well as whisper seductively.

Chemlab – Suture – Review

June 1, 2001

The three EP tracks are old school industrial and worth a few spins, and for those into remixes of more popular/less interesting material, there’s plenty.

Wish You Were Queer – Tribute to Ministry – Review

September 1, 2000

Most of the songs chosen aren’t my faves, and they all sound like Erasure or Depeche Mode on a bad day with some over-dramatic hack on vocals.

September 1, 2000

Another Prick in the Wall has a bit more o’ the roar, but everything here is still significantly worse than the originals, so what’s the point?

The Damage Manual – One – Review

June 1, 2000

Martin Atkins is the Greg Ginn of the early 21st century, i.e. appearing on just about every release on his Invisible label. One difference: He doesn’t suck.

Dread Kennedys: In Dub We Trust – Review

April 1, 2000

Industrial-ish bands cover DK tunes. Be warned: None of the covers are punk, dub, or reggae. Like DK, the production quality is as thin as a tequila shit.

Jared Louche and the Aliens – Covergirl – Review

April 1, 2000

First solo project from Jared Louche, ex-singer of Chemlab. Far from being a straight album of covers, these reinterpretations go not invoke the originals.

Meg Lee Chin – Piece and Love – Review

January 1, 2000

Though definitely pop, her songs are harsh and in no way compromising. After listening, I knew exactly why she didn’t become the singer for Garbage.
