Into Another – Seemless – Review

February 1, 1996

The Dandy Warhols – Little Drummer Boy – Review

February 1, 1996

Psychedelic pop’s best kept secret. Their Little Drummer Boy captures the artificial joy and naive charm that makes Christmas time so bizarrely entertaining.

Greenella – “Short Fuse” – Review

February 1, 1996

Side two is a balls-to-the-wall post-punk rocker whose balls actually remain at least six inches from said wall the whole time.

Fluf – The Classic Years – Review

February 1, 1996

The fattest sound in distorted guitars and deep, heartfelt singing that make me feel like a child getting a big hug by St. Nick every time I listen to Fluf.

Children of the Bong – Sirius Sounds – Review

February 1, 1996

Techno acid-dub like this with Eno-ish ding-dongs and synths ranting in the language of Bwah! can make for sonic wallpaper or a transformational experience.

Cause For Alarm – Warzone – Split – Review

February 1, 1996

Cause For Alarm are the NYC hardcore band that only released one 7″ before members went on to form Agnostic Front. The name has been resurrected recently.

The Brian Jonestown Massacre – Methodrone – Review

February 1, 1996

The melodies and vocal style could almost peg them as alternaBrit, but they’re from San Francisco and hit you hard with their soporific power.

Built to Spill – Caustin Resin EP – Review

February 1, 1996

Revolves around vocalist/guitarist Doug Martsch, formerly of Seattle’s Treepeople. The line-up has included too many other Northwest band members to mention.

All About Chad – I Know A Girl – Review

February 1, 1996

Directionless janglepop from folks who might just be better off crocheting and watching daytime soap operas than making records.

Compulsion – “How Do I Breathe” – Review

December 1, 1995

Thick and melodic in a faux lumberjack kinda way. Guitar rock in between the fluf/Overwhelming Colorfast sensitive bigboy camp and Jesus Lizard.
