June 4, 2001

This sampler of the label’s most recent licks at the driveways of garage rock delivers all this – but also a good helping of the unexpected.

Unwound – Challenge For A Civilized Society – Review

September 1, 1998

Unwound breaks no new ground, sticking to their tried and true formula of Big Black-like guitar histrionics, tribal bass, and wonderfully off-kilter drum beats.

August 1, 1996

A lighter Pitchshifter crossed with a less junky Front 242. They are pure, taking the typical industrial sound and banging it out of contortion.

Unwound – The Future of What – Review

July 1, 1995

Jabberjaw – No. 5: Good To The Last Drop – Review

October 1, 1994

A compilation of 17 of the most palpitation-inspiring scenesters around (Jawbox, Girls Against Boys, Seaweed, Hole, Beck, etc.) and for a good cause.
