Serengeti & Polyphonic get remixed by WHY? and Greetings From Tuskan

Serengeti and Polyphonic’s Terradactyl is an album about place-losing place, mostly, struggling to find it again, and succumbing to the fact that it’s cold, and surprisingly lonely, when you’re dressed in the human condition. Serengeti, heretofore a master of on-record character acting, appears here as his most vulnerable self: someone wedged between a dream and a series of day-jobs, between a failed marriage and raising new life, inside of a…

The Crumbs – Hold that Shit Right (CD)

I’ve reviewed The Crumbs once before. That album I wasn’t the biggest fan of, but that was The Crumbs 2003-2004, and this is the Crumbs 1993-2002, and I don’t feel that a blanket statement would do much to describe what clearly is a different phase for this long-lasting band. I’m shocked, I hear melody, and a style of punk that is a mixture of Rancid and The Ramones come out…

Cruci-Fetus – Demo (CD)

Coping off the riff for Metallica’s “Motorbreath” in the beginning of the track, the opening “G.W. Cunt” is a high-water mark for these two individuals, Joe Hiles and George McSweeney. The track is only around a minute, but political beliefs don’t need to be long, drawn-out treaties or discussion. “Pentagram Agenda 1984”, as well as the rest of the tracks on the disc, feature guest drumming by Brock Ailes, from…

Crowell, Doles & Quinn – Don’t Look Down (CD)
