Smash Up Derby – Review

October 15, 2003

A great comp for those who wanna learn about this stuff, and it’s got some cool unreleased stuff, all for a list price of two Rolling Rocks.

Puffball – Solid State – Review

February 14, 2003

Fast rocker punk with a Stooges quote, a Motörhead rip, and a non-pop presentation that works great. Imagine a hardcore band in ’83 playing sped-up Nuge riffs.

How We Rock – Review

January 3, 2003

This comp nails it. Unlike Now That’s What I Call Shitty Music: Volume Four Billion, How We Rock compiles 19 hotshots and whatnots both trendy and “classic.”

Puffball – The Super Commando – Review

Alpha Motherfuckers – A Tribute to Turbonegro – Review

February 22, 2002

This series is for anyone who gets cranked up by Motörhead, Agent Orange, AC/DC, pre-Beatles Redd Kross, early Kiss, The Runaways/first couple Joan Jett recs.
