Women of Sodom – Boots – Review

March 1, 1996

All the favorite songs are on this 12-track CD. “Manwich” features Ilsa spouting feminist spew while vocalist Anneka sings a lovely lullaby in the background.

Vision of Disorder – Still – Review

March 1, 1996

I don’t know what crawled up the singer’s ass, but he sure sounds pissed. Loud Long Island hardcore that I wouldn’t advise playing around epileptics.

Saturday Morning: Cartoon’s Greatest Hits – Review

March 1, 1996

While most of the covers of Saturday morning television songs are fun to listen to, I prefer the originals. But the packaging is magnificent and informative.

Third Eye Butterfly – “Something Happened” – Review

March 1, 1996

“Something Happened” is a moody, moving, quasi-psychedelic masterpiece. “All The Way to Riyadh” sounds a bit like the Smithereens with a slightly softer edge.

Georgia – Review

March 1, 1996

Jennifer Jason Leigh has a gift for portraying the most desperate and disconsolate characters in her films. Sadie Flood is definitely one of the more pathetic.

The Sons of Hercules – “Spittin’ Fire” – Review

March 1, 1996

Punchy, post-punk heavy on the distortion. The Sons of Hercules sound like the Stooges, but with better production. It’s fast and in-yer-face, yet bouncy.

The Hellions – “Highway 101” – Review

March 1, 1996

With twangy reverb, slick guitar licks and flamboyant bass lines, this sounds like a band you’d find playing in a smoky pool hall.

Bratface – “Hate is You” – Review

March 1, 1996

Ah, the glorious adventures of snarling youth. Bratface is your obnoxious little brother screaming “I know what I hate/Hate is YOU!!!”

Snuka – Review

March 1, 1996

Vocalist Chloe screeches like your little teenage sister with PMS on a bad hair day who’s out to get revenge on the boyfriend who just dumped her.

Seven Year Bitch – Gato Negro – Review

March 1, 1996

Their third release (first for Atlantic), and still as coarse and nasty as ever. Selene Vigil screeches like she’s just had a car door slammed on her hand.
