Steady Earnest – Take It, Take It, TAKE IT! – Review

February 1, 1995

Some of the finest ska talent in the area, Steady Earnest being a little more of a pop band. I prefer Bim Skala Bim trombonist Vinnie Nobile’s live performance.

Bim Skala Bim – Eyes and Ears – Review

February 1, 1995

Vocalist Dan Vitale could be considered the godfather of Boston’s ska scene. Together since 1985, Bim have just released their sixth album, Eyes and Ears.

February 1, 1995

A number of scene notables turned out for the debut of Plank, a four-piece alternapop act fronted by the impressive Lisa Rahon.

Hotel Massachusetts – Review

From the Western Mass-based Chunk Records. It has twenty-two tracks (plus an intro) of indie rock from some great local bands.

6L6 – with Orangutang at The Rat – Review

December 1, 1994

Superstar takes a step toward a more melodically accessible sound. Vocalist/bassist Ted Condo continues his confrontationally personal style of lyric writing.

Catherine – Sorry – Review

December 1, 1994

Their drummer is married to D’arcy of Smashing Pumpkins. Billy Corgan persuaded Butch Vig to produce the new record. It sounds great.
