|
Dial 611 - by DJ Feelgood |
MP3 |
|
Electronic |
This dull but danceable track is appropriately titled -- it's in serious need of repair service!
|
Swingin' Utters |
|
Angels Pissing On Your Head |
MP3 |
|
Punk |
A run-of-the-mill South Bay punk anthem for sad sacks everywhere. Punk might not be dead, but mediocrities like this aren't exactly keeping it in rosy good health.

What My Heart Says |

|
R&B |
Missing from Miss Thang’s latest: the freshness that made you wanna be the boy in “The Boy Is Mine.” Her ever-improving set of pipes (check the evidence) deserves better.
|
Frankie Bones |
|
Creator 2000 |
MP3 |
|
Electronic |
On this track from his 2000 release, You Know My Name, Bones delivers four-to-the-floor beats that start off monotonous -- and stay there…
|
O-Town |
|
Liquid Dreams |
LiquidAudio,mjuice |
|
Pop |
Observe as TV's pre-fab five give "Liquid Dreams" to the teenage girls of America with this generic, by-the-numbers boyband weeper. Next to these dorks, 'N Sync sound like King Crimson.
|
A.F.I. |
|
Totalimmortal |
MP3 |
|
Punk |
While an improvement over earlier efforts, A.F.I. still bring too many metal cliches to the table to be taken seriously by the hardcore scene.
|
Jay-Z |
|
20 Bag Shorty |
PlayJ |
|
Rap/Hip Hop |
The track definitely ain’t wack (sounds like they threw a beat behind Bacharach), but Jay-Z and his merry men have too much on their minds to make this smoothie flow the way it deserves.
|
Lagwagon |
|
Leave The Light On |
MP3 |
|
Punk |
Solid (if uninspired) pop-punk -- this is the stereotypical "Fat Wreck Chords sound" again, though Lagwagon does it as well as anyone, for whatever that’s worth.
|
Dust For Life |
|
Step Into The Light |
MP3 |
|
Rock |
Dust For Fingerprints would be more to the point -- this dull slab of modern hard rock is so generic, it's hard to know where to even begin placing the blame.
|
Fear Factory |
|
What Will Become |
MP3 |
|
Metal |
LA’s techno-metal stalwarts look further into the future and come up with some of their own past – showing it’s tough being ahead of your time.
