Shadows Fall – Of One Blood – Review

June 1, 2000

American death metal’s muscles trained by European melodies, played with attitude. Like many other half-assed heavy music singers, he should stick to screaming.

Reggie and The Full Effect – Promotional Copy – Review

June 1, 2000

A joke side project that uses everything from gangster samples, “witty/dorky” culture, and inlay, to an Eddie and the Cruisers-esque storyline as its backbone.

Seven Story Mountain – Based on a True Story – Review

June 1, 2000

Opening track “So Soon” is by far the most catchy indie rock song I’ve heard since Jimmy Eat World’s “Call it in the Air.”

Tiara – Again Cast In – Review

June 1, 2000

Like many other emo bands that have moved on, Tiara is adding more color by attempting to write vocal lines like a folk/indie rock band.

Radio 4 – The New Song and Dance – Review

June 1, 2000

Mod music played by guys more interested in writing good music than teasing their hair to look like they just woke up. Ex-members of Garden Variety & Milhouse.

Project 86 – Drawing Black Lines – Review

June 1, 2000

They goe for a total physical reaction; to get listeners fired up and make them do karate kicks in their baggy pants. GGGarth produced, so this shit drops.

Podstar – Review

June 1, 2000

Upbeat, fun power pop that reminds me of The Figgs. Plenty of falsettos, ’70s rock-isms that sound like Elton John or the more rockin’ Billy Joel tunes.

Neck – Should My Fist Eye – Review

June 1, 2000

Tool’s depressiveness, Cave-In’s technicality, Botch’s spine-tapping guitarings, Deftone’s melodic false serenity, and a monster truck-sized production.

Malevolent Creation – Manifestation – Review

June 1, 2000

You shouldn’t need this uneven best-of because you should already own every Malevolent Creation album (well, except for the monotonous In Cold Blood).

Ignite – A Place Called Home – Review

June 1, 2000

The spirit and muscle of hardcore mixed with dashes of pop-punk that make it more accessible. Teglas’s command of his three octave voice will keep you amazed.
