Dog Faced Hermans – Bump & Swing – Review

June 1, 1995

With thundering bass, jazzy rhythms, blaring horns, and Björk-like vocals, Dog Faced Hermans have moved to the forefront of avant-garde political punk rock.

Day-Glo Abortions – Little Man in the Canoe – Review

June 1, 1995

These Canucks were always the quintessential skate-punk band for me and my friends in the ’80s. It’s hard to believe they’re still doing the same thing.

Baby Chaos – Safe Sex, Designer Drugs & the Death of… – Review

June 1, 1995

Straight-ahead alternative rock played by men who use voice synthesizers and who don’t suck elephant cock. Being slated by some as a possible “next big thing.”

Zeke Fiddler – “Half-Baked” / “Half-Inflated” – Review

May 1, 1995

Laid back Half Japanese-style stripped down rock. Good songwriting and semi-interesting vocals keep it from being too boring.

Via Satellite – “Phantom Booster” – Review

May 1, 1995

Space age vibe (read: Early ’80s new wave) meets modern indie rock. Laid back but fairly powerful. Good female vocals.

Shreds Vo. 2: American Underground – Review

May 1, 1995

The Shreds series endeavors to be a Pebbles for the ’90s, and so far they’ve done their mentors proud.

Tugboat Annie – Superfriends – Review

May 1, 1995

f Tugboat Annie were one of the four elements they’d be air, specifically the smog-free, thin, cold air high above our everyday lives.

DMZ – Live at the Rat ’76 – Review

May 1, 1995

DMZ could be called Boston’s answer to the Stooges or Dead Boys, but it’s not necessary to do so because they have no problem standing on their own.

Black Calvin – “Postcard” / “Be With You” – Review

May 1, 1995

Black Calvin are semi-Goth grunge-meets Therapy? with moodiness, mid-paced, boy/girl yelling.

Hum – You’d Prefer an Astronaut – Review

May 1, 1995

Cool fuzz drone stuff. Most of it sounds almost note for note like My Bloody Valentine with the guy singing. Some parts are quiet, others pretty ballsy.
