Soaking in the Center of the Universe – Review

November 1, 1998

Spongebath has a cool story behind it, but I can’t remember what it is. This label in Murfreesboro, TN, has some fun, quirky, diverse bands on their roster.

Slip This On and Rock Hard – Review

November 1, 1998

Slip This On and Rock Hard shows the industrial side of Slipdisc. Formed in 1995, Slipdisc has come so far so fast, it almost makes ya nervous.

Red Aunts – Ghetto Blaster – Review

September 1, 1998

Punk-as-shit avant noise bound to rejuvenate the chaotic creativity long bled from rock, or a whipped-off gem by musicians too whacked for their own good?

Primal Fear – Review

September 1, 1998

If you always loved Priest, but thought their production lacked the over-the-topness available to hacks with half the songwriting talent, here’s Primal Fear.
