Explosions in the Sky – The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place
Review — February 29, 2004
If Explosions in the Sky's previous LP, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever, could be called one thing, it would be called "derivative." Not that it wasn't an incredible record crafted by a band on top of their game, but …
Envy – A Dead Sinking Story
Review — March 4, 2004
There're plenty of bands in the world, but the ones that really stick out are the ones that leave you scratching your head, unsure of what you've heard, but a little bruised, beaten, and fulfilled because of it. Japan's Envy is one of those bands, a flurry of sound that …
Time for Living – The Cheat is Not Dead
Review — April 22, 2004
The Bay Area and surrounding areas must have an endless supply of hardcore bands. It seems every week I am discovering a new band from the NorCal scene. Time for Living is the latest band to receive my undivided attention, which they first peaked with their demo. With their Rival …
Plan of Attack – The Working Dead
Review — June 7, 2004
Upon their inception a few years ago, Plan of Attack was already a cut above a lot of the hardcore bands in the Midwest. Now, a demo, a 7", and a live 7" split with Terror & The Promise later, they continue to remain a cut above most of the …
M83 – Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts
Review — December 15, 2004
Listening stations in major music stores really suck. There's always some dolt who doesn't know how to use it ("SCAN HERE" is never in his or her vocabulary), or someone's playing mind-numbingly awful music with the volume at 11 so that everyone in the store can hear the decline of …
Codeseven – Dancing Echoes / Dead Sounds
Review — February 17, 2005
A lot of albums are released during the course of a year. Hell, even if you rule out all the albums that you know you have no interest in at all, there will still be some that you just don't get around to fully checking out until much after the …
Comeback Kid – Wake the Dead
Review — February 23, 2005

The Letters Organize – Dead Rhythm Machine
Review — April 10, 2005
Right off the bat, you know what it's going to be. They're not the first and they definitely won't be the last. And no, they aren't Minor Threat. They are The Letters Organize, just one of the many The Shape of Punk to Come copy cats to come around long …
Never Enough – Dead Set on Destruction
Review — May 26, 2005
I first heard about this band in the summer of 2003. I was buying a 7" from a band on tour when their merch guy told me about his band, Never Enough. He said they were a cross between Negative Approach and American Nightmare. He gave me a demo CD-R. …
Various Artists – Dead Band's Party: A Tribute to Oingo Boingo
Review — July 9, 2005
The 80's weren't really as bad as those VH1 specials make it out to be. Sure the fashion of those years was pretty atrocious, but try going to a concert today without laughing. It's hard, trust me. Throughout the decade there was quality music being made on all fronts - …
