wesly willis fiasco - Spookydisharmoniusconflicthellride



If you don’t know who Wesley Willis was, then you are missing out. Think of him as a bigger, fatter, crazier ODB that appealed to more white kids. If you do know who wesly willis is than you know the deal, you either love him or hate him. This isn't the usual Willis output however. In this record he is graced with the presence of a band and they are good too. Its still the same ol' ranting that you would expect and hilarious as ever, but this time its to the tune of punk meets stadium rock. Think Rollins band and you re getting close. If you are one of those people that couldn't get into his barely more than jingles, but still thought his lyrics were at least humorous should check this out and see if you like him now.

Rainbow of Death s/t


This CD isn't for everyone, or may it is? these guys and girl are from France and bring together many elements from various forms of aggressive music. Primarily crust, grind and hardcore. don't let that discourage you from checking these guys out. because its at such a frenzied pace that this record never has a chance to get boring. this band also shares the same members as drone band monarch, however their styles are polar opposites. Rainbow of Death are for fans of find him and kill him, alarm, mammoth grinder, hatred surge, and the like.

Shellac - 1000 hurts


To the one true God above:here is my prayer -not the first you've heard, but the first I wrote.(not the first, but the others were a long time ago).There are two people here, and I want you to kill them.Her - she can go quietly, by disease or a blowto the base of her neck, where her necklaces close,where her garments come together,where I used to lay my face...That's where you oughta kill her,in that particular place.Him - just fucking kill him, I don't care if it hurts.Yes I do, I want it to,fucking kill him but firstmake him cry like a woman,(no particular woman),let him hold out hope that someone or other might comethen fucking kill him

Jesus Lizaer - Liar




Arguably the greatest underground live band of the 1990s, the Jesus Lizard displayed all their virtues in perfect form on LIAR. The album blisters with a musical exactitude that can only come from within in a studio, but the lurching, slightly bluesy underpinnings of the tone make one feel as if they are present for the chaos. The Jesus Lizard had almost no chance of achieving stardom, but the laundry list of soon-to-be stars that borrowed wholesale from their sound (Kurt Cobain unabashedly among them) makes clear the sheer impact that LIAR, specifically, and the Jesus Lizard, in general, had on rock music in the 1990s.

Monotonix

Tel Aviv's Monotonix is essentially a garage band from Israel. But they are so much more than that. They are truly a live band, however this CD is nothing to scoff at. I cant really do this band justice with an explanation so here are some other asshole's quotes.
"Most exciting live band in rock'n'roll" - Spin"
Unlike anything you've ever witnessed." - Washington Post"
Unforgettable and thrilling chaos." - Now Toronto"
You hit my girlfriend in the head with a trash can, and as much as i love her, you were still the best fucking band I've seen in ages. don't stay away from Raleigh long, ok?" - "Siobhan", Raleigh NC
