February 1, 1996

This is not happy music. It’s fuzzy bass, pseudo-psychedelic distortion and slow industrial sludge. Rough, strange and beautiful, but monotonous.

Black Rose Garden – Tragic Dances – Review

February 1, 1996

Vocalist Rose Elliot’s strong, rich voice reminds me a bit of Tyson Meade (ex-Chainsaw Kittens). Having two percussionists gives them a quasi-tribal feel.

You Could Do Worse – #5 – Review

February 1, 1996

Packed with lots of intriguing columns, and covers a broad range of music. Interviews, cartoons, fiction, essays, great photography, and excellent layout.

Wicker Man – Review

December 1, 1995
