Machines of Loving Grace – at Local 186 – Review

April 1, 1994

With snarling heavy metal guitars, a live drummer, and a trigger percussionist/sample spewer, Machines filled the stage and every molecule of air with mayhem.

I Mother Earth – with Mutha’s Day Out at Axis – Review

April 1, 1994

The sound was MUCH heavier than I’d expected from their release Dig, which is more trippy, jazzy progressive hard rock.

Bonehead – with 6L6, Stompbox, and Tree at Axis – Review

Sex Tattoos & Rock ‘n’ Roll – Review

February 1, 1994

Birdbrain – Princess – Review

February 1, 1994

The sound is catchy pop rock with the mean grungy guitar trodding heavily along. They harmonize many of the choruses. The three piece can pull it off live.

Piss Factory – Review

February 1, 1994

Lizzie Avondet’s vocals have that gritty, early Joan Jett feel. Some choruses have haunting, Valium angel sweetness layered like a Twix, with a cookie crunch.

This Is Not Here – Review

February 1, 1994

Many of the songs have a lapping ocean feel, a swaying groove saturated by wild guitar effects, reverbed and/or mechanized, and thundering bass and drums.

February 1, 1994
