Sunnychar – You’re My Battery – Review

May 1, 1995

Fuck Shonen Knife, Japan is a whole country full of adorable females who play wonderfully fun, bouncy punk rock. Sunnychar are one of the best I’ve heard.

Splendorbin – “Strasserland” – Review

May 1, 1995

Reminds me of the very first Lookout! singles, like Isocracy and Crimpshrine. Upbeat, kiddie crayon drawing graphics, a somewhat hippie-dippie version of punk.

Scud Mountain Boys – Dance The Night Away – Review

May 1, 1995

Perfect for those who want to find some balance in their CD collection. The lead and backing vocals are reminiscent of Lou Reed and John Cale.

Push Kings – Slow Down, This is Not Monte Carlo – Review

May 1, 1995

You can file this one night next to your old Pavement, Sebadoh, and Swirlies singles. Keeping stoner lo-fi honest and alive.

PJ Harvey – To Bring You My Love – Review

May 1, 1995

To Bring You My Love has a less noisy, more accessible feel than the previous three albums, but her attitude is, if anything, more caustic than ever.

Medicine – “Off The Vine” – Review

May 1, 1995

Almost worth it for the packaging, but not quite. The music is plodding, distant, and underwater-sounding. Try as I might, I just couldn’t really get into it.

Hagfish – Review

May 1, 1995

Hagfish are actually pretty solid pop punk, like a heavier ALL. Nothin’ to write home about though.

Godheadsilo – Elephantitus of the Night – Review

May 1, 1995

The recording is lo-fi as all hell, and Godheadsilo play with a plodding, focused aggression that is similar to the Melvins, though not nearly as coherent.

For Love Not Lisa – “Good Intentions” / “Hallowed Be” – Review

April 1, 1995

Post-hardcore with a heavy groove, similar to Quicksand, but not as exciting. It’s not boring, though.

Extreme Noise Terror – Retrobution – Review

April 1, 1995

Brutal grindcore done with an early Discharge motif. E.N.T. shirk the Napalm Death/Cryptic Slaughter hyperspeed drumming for the Motörhead locomotive sound.
