Elliott Smith – Either/Or – Review

June 1, 1997

Sparse arrangements with an overt focus on the heady, airily-sung lyrics which span topics ranging from disdain and disinterest.

The Great Unraveling – Review

June 1, 1997

From the bowels of Baltimore comes some of the better, and more twisted, post-whatever scene that sprung out of D.C. and Fugazi over a decade ago.

Emily’s Sassy Lime – Desperate, Scared, But Social – Review

October 1, 1996

They render the riot grrrl ethic to understatement. Cutesy garage that won’t offend anyone but sound engineers was never the point.

Fitz of Depression – Swing – Review

September 1, 1996

Fitz of Depression play hardcore punk that’s not aimed at the lowest common denominator of punkdom.

Dos – Justamente Tres – Review

September 1, 1996

After the demise of the Minutemen, Mike Watt did a lot of things. One of the better projects came when he teamed up with his wife, Kira, and started Dos.

Bikini Kill – Reject All American – Review

August 1, 1996

The goose-pimpled rage of the songs and the sadness tucked between them still exists, but what’s different is who’s singing.

Peechees – Do The Math – Review

April 1, 1996

The hard-fast-but-not-too-fast pogo rings with the dragstrip simplicity of an emission-sputterin’ rock jalopy. The singer has his Darby Crash mewl down cold.

Bikini Kill – I Like Fucking – Review

February 1, 1996

Move over boys, if these Riot Grrls don’t kick your ass physically, they will musically. This isn’t your typical whiney, girly screeching band.

Juliana Luecking – Dream Cum Go Down – Review

December 1, 1995

Julianna Leucking goes to clubs, parks, the supermarket, etc., and asks questions. A collection of short interviews with lesbians by a lesbian.

A Slice Of Lemon – Review

November 1, 1995

If you enjoyed the comps Kill Rock Stars, Stars Kill Rock, or Rock Stars Kill, then you’ll be into this double CD as well. There are 39 bands, one track each.
