Mourn – Review

July 1, 1995

Mountains of bassy guitar and lyrics about dreaming, souls, reality; the dreary mysticism of acid rock. Caroline Wilson adds a beautiful, trembling voice.

Social Distortion – with The Bouncing Souls at T.T. the Bears – Review

July 1, 1995

A huge wall of guitars roaring, simply, loudly and majestically, over which the patented drone vocal was laid. They’re punk, and not getting watered down.

Oi!/Skampilation – Review

July 1, 1995

Many of us can enjoy both a little rough old-school stomping as well as the happy fun of pogoing to some up-tempo ska.

More Than You Can Chew – Review

July 1, 1995

Most of the bands stay true to indie/powerpop/punk pop “guidelines,” and those that don’t are cool enough that you don’t really care anyway.

Manic Hispanic – The Menudo Incident – Review

July 1, 1995

If the songs sound familiar, it’s because they’re covers. If the musicians sound familiar, it’s because they’re from Cadillac Tramps, The Grabbers, and Joyride.

Dripping Goss – Blowtorch Consequence – Review

July 1, 1995

Some songs are tight as shit aggression, some are noodlings in the lo-fi swamps of noise, and the rest range from rock to hardcore.

Good Citizen – Review

July 1, 1995

The bands don’t fit neatly into categories like indie rock, punk, hardcore, noise, classic rock, or heavy metal. All are represented, but not in the usual way.

100% Latin Ska – Review

July 1, 1995

All in Spanish, all ska. Cool, eh? Lots of horns, bongos, a bit of cocktail lounge, a bit of guitar rock.

Wat Tyler – I Wanna Be Billie Joe – Review

July 1, 1995

Five, um, songs recorded for fun in a weekend. In the continuing tale of the little people, the witch, and the wizard; they all make friends and have an orgy.

Riverdales – with The Queers at the Rat – Review

July 1, 1995

Riverdales keep it simple: No excessive harmonies, no tricky time changes, and few variations in tempo, key, and beat. Yet the songs are instantly catchy.
