14 songs on Pervertidora records ,1999. Wow i dont think i have ever heard an album quite like this, because it is all orchestral compositions, but twisted, and is made into a etheral soundtrack to zone out to, very demented like. This is what experimental and industrial music should sound like, Not bull shit like NIN or FLA. MUB definitely takes from Aphex Twin, Kraftwerk, and Throbbing Gristle. This is…

Caterpillar Tracks – Scrape The Summer / 2007 Phratry Records / 5 Tracks / http://www.phratryrecords.com / Caterpillar Tracks is an act that we know well at NeuFutur. We reviewed their self-titled album a few years back, and “Scrape The Summer†continues with the same rich style. “It’s Scientific, Goddamn†is a track that has a lot of Replacements and 1986-era Goo Goo Dolls present in the overall sound, but this…

Witchdoctor, also known as Erin Johnson, is a first generation member of Atlanta’s legendary Dungeon Family collective that includes hip hop powerhouses like Goodie Mob, OutKast and Killer Mike among others. He entered the…
This was released in 1987 on Megaforce records, and this has 23 songs. MOD, which stands for Masters of Destruction, sounds like DRI mixed with old (read:good) Exodus. The guitars are fast, which mostly brutal riffs on the low end of the E and A strings. The leas singer Bill Milano, half talks/screams his way through each songs. This screaming limits each of the songs to only 1 or 2…
This 5 song EP was released on Broken Rekids. I paid $2 for this slab of plastic. Me First is another band with the older punk/rock feel, sounding like The Donnas, the Runaways, and Joan Jett. They have very classical (read:70’s) guitar riffs, and a shitload of distortion. Mr First is also another all female punk band. Me First’s vocals are rough and deep, which just adds to the 70’s…

The Dangerous Summer – If You Could Only Keep Me Alive / 2007 Hopeless / 7 Tracks / http://www.hopelessrecords.com / http://www.myspace.com/dangeroussummer / “I Would Stay†starts out “If You Could Only Keep Me Aliveâ€, and starts out slowly. The band kicks into gear soon after, and the Taking Back Sunday meets MxPx style of the vocals move away from their stark sound into meshing well with the instrumentation. “I Would…
GREAT NORTHERN’S PRE-TWILIGHT RECORDINGS TO SEE LIGHT OF DAY; DIGITAL PRE-RELEASE SET FOR NOVEMBER 6, ALBUM OUT FEBRUARY 2008 LOS ANGELES, October 24, 2007 – Before Great Northern honed the lush lullabies that made up its arresting debut LP, “Trading Twilight for Daylight” (Eenie Meenie Records), the L.A.-based foursome constructed a set of songs that laid the early groundwork for the band’s cinematic pop. Previously only available at live shows,…
Brooklyn, NY is known for many things, but great Modern Rock is probably not one of them. Now the BK’s best kept secret, Underwhelmed, are looking to change that, breaking out with a 3 Month tour in support of their recently released EP, The War Between Myself and Me, available at shows and via mail-order and iTunes, with a full-length to follow in early 2008 on Corporate Punishment Records/Koch.
This is great NYC old style punk, plain and simple. Amazingly good songs, and they are not straight edgers. That is good. A guy has a mohawk. They thank Joey Ramone. This is out on NG records, which is a pretty cool as fuck label. This amazing work of an album gets a 9 out of 10. Good Work guys, just stay together. The guys in the band have cool…
This tape is 36 minutes long, and it is from Jevan Records, which probably is a defunct label which was out of Parma Heights Ohio. This is electronic gothic music, which mixes depressed Depeche Mode with some Cure, and it also has Female and Male vocals. Lestat uses old clips between songs, which is a good, albeit overused median between songs. These guys have slow Cure like guitars, with samplers…
The lead singer on this tape screams so much that it sounds like he is being anally rape and making words about it. The guitar parts on this tape are really clear sounding, and this band sounds like Morbid Angel or Cannibal Corpse. This tape was made in 1993, and the drums are extremely fast. On Noise/Futurist records. Rating:8/10 1
Angels and Airwaves’ 2006 debut We Don’t Need to Whisper signaled the beginning of a concept that not only continues, but flourishes with the release of the band’s sophomore full-length, I-Empire. That’s because the San Diego-based rock group, fronted by Tom DeLonge, has always considered both We Don’t Need to Whisper and I-Empire two halves of its double-album concept. While the band’s debut addressed infinite possibility in the human experience,…
Hello Skye. Can you give us a quick overview of who you are and what type of music you create? Hi! I’m a singer/songwriter from New York. I’m also a student at Wesleyan University. I balance my life between school and singing. The music that I play is kind of a rock infused version of the girl singer/songwriter genre.
PJ Harvey – When Under Ether / 2007 Universal / Island / 2 Tracks / http://www.pjharvey.net / http://www.islandrecords.com / PJ Harvey has been around a long time, but for the life of me, I’m not that familiar with eir body of work. Regardless, “When Under Ether†is eir new track, and it provides a tenderness of vocals and intricacy in the backing instrumentation that sounds as if Tori Amos differentiated…
Middle Distance Runner is an indie-pop outfit from Washington, D.C. whose 5 members combine their different influences to create a multi-layered sound that seamlessly blends their disparate influences. In addition to indie-pop, their sound has elements of heavy rock and shoe-gazing layered beneath the accessible surface.
This tape is from 1989, and was re-issued on Noise/Futurist records in 1993. This is very fast clear sounding guitar riffs along with nice chunky ones.This is pretty good 80`s metal, but not a hair band. The lead singer is the typical metal screamer, but his voice can be understood. Songs on this tape sound like mid-80’s Metallica or Megadeth. The drums are somewhat hollow sounding on this recording. Overall,…
The new documentary film Tupac: Assassination – Conspiracy or Revenge? In stores Tuesday, October 23, is controversial enough with the shocking allegations that surface in the DVD, but during the Q & A that followed the pre-release media screening of the movie in Los Angeles last Thursday, the audience was stunned to hear ex Death Row bodyguard Kevin Hackie calmly state that he was an undercover FBI Agent during his…
