Puny Human – Universal Freak Out – Review

January 1, 2008

Big, beefy riffs in the warm rockin’ classic arena rock mode strained through both the Doc Martin ’80s and motor cycle boot/Chuck Taylor ’90s.

Mos Generator – Songs for Future Gods – Review

September 28, 2007

Thick-riffed hard rock. The guys have done time in Mindfunk, Treepeople, and Voodoo Gearshift and know which end of the guitar to tickle.

Greenleaf – Agents of Ahriman – Review

September 21, 2007

Greenleaf fuse the roiling generator party bottom-end/vibe that burbled up from Kyuss and the MeteorCity label with tasteful ’70s Euro-hard attack rock.

Sucking the ’70s – Back in the Saddle Again – Review

May 11, 2007

It was a good idea the first time, and it’s a good idea now, although four discs worth of ’70s covers does seem to be pushing things to the saturation point.

Hackman – The New Normal – Review

May 4, 2007

Lineage-from Milligram and Lamont, placing them in Boston’s gulping hardrockcore and whoop-ass drunk-speed-rock by the 40 oz. It rumbles exactly right.

Sasquatch – II – Review

April 20, 2007

Heavy classic-rock power-trio thump, stoner rock by way of Walsh-era James Gang, Red Album-era Grand Funk, and Ted Nugent’s debut.

Slot – The Sweet Black Bear – Review

March 30, 2007

The singing is dreamy in a shoegazer way, directly plainspoken or a phased sound in the background, no matter what she does, it works.

Kind of a no-brainer. Kick-ass, tuneful and soulful rock by shaggy guys who can solo and swagger, and the singer can belt it out. Shared stages with Fireball Ministry, Nebula, Unida, and surely every hard rock and stoner rock band in the country.

Los Natas – El Hombre Montaña – Review

October 20, 2006

High energy acid rock with a liquid flow that relaxes and spreads just enough before the guitarist starts biting off bar chords.

The Brought Low – Right on Time – Review

July 28, 2006

This is a legitimately great album. Great songs are the most important part of any great album, and it’s difficult for me to find fault with any these tracks.
