Fault – Review

March 1, 1996

Thick, sludgy, piercing distortion on the drums, guitar, bass, vocals… you get the idea – it’s industrial. Nice use of feedback and noise shrieks.

Scrutiny In The Great Round – Review

March 1, 1996

Stemming from the visionary collage work by Tennessee Rice, Scrutiny in the Great Round CD ROM is a multi-media piece involving poetry, music, art and concept.

The Trashwomen – Spend the Night With… – Review

March 1, 1996

This is surf, straight out of the garage, played fast and furious by babes who could break your legs just by squinting.

The Spitters – Sun To Sun – Review

March 1, 1996

Take some of the more disconcerting beats of Gang of Four, add a little Melvins lurch and shiver, pour on liberal amounts of the Birthday Party, and watch out!

The Sleepers – The Less an Object – Review

March 1, 1996

Part MC5, part Iggy & the Stooges, part Hawkwind; The Sleepers didn’t have the three chord buzzsaw guitar of Ramones, but they were punks per Lester Bangs.

Theory of Negativity – Review

March 1, 1996

Theory of Negativity rip, stomp, and tear at my speakers, making their lyrics, the tried and true stance against society, actually work.

The Impotent Sea Snakes – God Save The Queens – Review

March 1, 1996

A mixture of Kiss, Ru Paul, and Pansy Division. A bunch of guys in drag playing, you know, rock, with obscene lyrics about felching, fist-fucking, and anal sex.

Pansy Division – Wish I’d Taken Pictures – Review

March 1, 1996

The flaming princes of queercore are back! Jon Ginoli has taken singing lessons, or has been smoking a lot. I love this music, and I’m not ashamed of it.

Pansy Division – Valentine’s Day – Review

March 1, 1996

The queer punk kingpins remind us, on red vinyl, why Valentine’s Day is the holiday from Hell.

Austen’s Dead – Vomit – Review

March 1, 1996

They’re loud, ugly, and they’re not taking shit from anyone. They’d stomp on your mother’s face just for a laugh. If you pick this up, don’t forget to duck.
