ZZ Top – Fandango! – Review

October 20, 2006

The live half is the only officially sanctioned live recording from the band’s early years. The second half contains their best studio work at that point.

ZZ Top – Tres Hombres – Review

October 20, 2006

This album is probably best known as the home of “La Grange,” but its riches reach far beyond that lone tune. Tres Hombres has a lot to offer.

The Ditty Bops – Moon Over the Freeway – Review

August 4, 2006

Sounds of Prohibition and fedoras fill the album, as Abby DeWald and Amanda Barrett harmonize and waltz their way through slightly odd tales of love and life.

The Flaming Lips – At War with the Mystics – Review

July 14, 2006

Universally beloved, they somehow continue to make oddball, quirky music that caresses humanity’s collective soul while never staying stylistically stagnant.

Static-X – Machine – Review

February 22, 2002

Static-X is a younger, harder, faster version of dumbed-down Ministry and Fear Factory with fashion sense that’ll hound them for the rest of their lives.

The Soundtrack of our Lives – Behind the Music – Review

June 4, 2001

The Soundtrack of our Lives show no signs of mortality. Simply put, Behind the Music is a stunner, the third consecutive bull’s-eye for these Swedes.

Static-X – Wisconsin Death Trip – Review

June 1, 1999

A pretty good new metal band with plenty of Korn, Sepultura, and just enough Goth metal extravagance/weirdness to attract tattooed and overly-pierced “freaks.”

The Red Telephone – Review

November 1, 1998

Reminiscent of Goo Goo Dolls and the top 40 rock gracing the airwaves, this Boston-based band gives us more of the same, with none of the first album quirks.

Robyn Hitchcock – Moss Elixir – Interview

September 1, 1996

An interview with Robyn Hitchcock

A Time to Kill – Review

September 1, 1996

It’s a fine, hard-nosed courtroom drama, with all the required plot twists and dramatic elements in place – it ain’t no Pelican Brief, thank God.
