As far as videos go, Musab’s “Hat & Shoes” is about as much of a departure from his previous video, “Baaang,” as you could imagine from the smooth-talking mack.

Instead of firing off heavy rhymes straight into the camera, we now have Sab flowing into a microphone in a dark…

Shalini – The Surface and The Shine / 2007 Electric Devil / 11 Tracks / http://www.interbridge.com/shalini / If the name Shalini sounds familiar at all, it may be because ey was a leading member of the somewhat-famous San Francisco band, Vinyl Devotion, which was founded all the way back in 1990.

The trio’s self-released album has been spritzed up and retooled, but there’s no containing the primal, giddy energy that crackles through it. Careening back and forth between desperate/lovesick and drunk/predatory, the band turns raw, conflicted desire into instantly addictive pop gems and scorching, swaggering rock. The band’s hearts and influences are on full display, but the results are wonderfully contagious. For an ideal example, delve into the winningly bouncy, vaguely…
This was release in 99 on Tugboat Records, and it has 15 songs. It cost me nothing. Vic Godard has had a long history, from being in the Subway Sect, a British punk band, to now, as a Rock band as Vic Godard. The album is great, mixing reggae with rock with indy with soul. Vic is all over the musical map, drawing from an amazing amount of influences to…

Wow…4 similar bands that sound completely different from each other. SMP: This band is the best on the tape. They sound like Hate Dept. and fully pull off the gothic/ GOOD industrial sound. I really hope SMP gets a full length album out, so i can be in pure technical nirvana. Rating:8/10 Noxious Emotion: This band sounds like older Manson, NIN, KMFDM, and Aphex Twin. They are obviously influenced by…

Fictonal- A tribute to the cure Finally, a good tribute album. 99% of the the tribute albums suck, but this one is really good. This is a Swedish Import that i got for $7 at NRM, and it was money well spent. Most of the covers are dance songs, and as a oddity, they have some substance behind them. I guess it is only Brit and American dance that is…
