April 1, 2001

A crosswalk between jazz, intellectually exercised (and often purposely withheld) melody, and improvised conversation amongst rock instruments.

7 Seconds – Scream Real Loud – Review

This is the legendary band looking back on nearly two decades of work, pulling out 26 songs of non-stop anthemic hardass punk.

Paris, Texas – Brazilliant! – Review

April 1, 2001

Their full-length was a nice experiment in blending jazz, indie pop, and Dischord flailings, but this EP is where Paris, Texas succeeds.

Overkill – Bloodletting – Review

April 1, 2001

No commercial attempts, no Gothic or classical undertones, just the thunderous bass crunch of D.D. Verni and the snarl of Bobby “Blitz” Ellsworth.

3rd Root – A Sign of Things to Come – Review

April 1, 2001

3rd Root sing about being “saved” in quiet whispers (sometimes bursting into screams) driven by Latin percussive undertones, not unlike P.O.D. or Sepultura.

Murphy’s Law – The Best of Times / Good For Now – Review

April 1, 2001

Two of Murphy’s Law’s hard-to-find releases reissued on one disc. You can’t beat that!

Malevolent Creation – Envenomed – Review

April 1, 2001

Malevolent Creation ceased to progress beyond the usual blastbeat/mosh-breakdown-part combination, but I still find myself loyal to every record they put out.
