NUB Reviews

April 1999

Records of the month:


Sleater-Kinney - The Hot Rock

The Hot Rock cover

Brandon Grimes
The Hot Rock isn't so much an atom bomb as it is a bevy of tiny
hand grenades, but it still blows you away.

Joe Henry - Fuse

Fuse cover

Lane Hewitt:
Joe Henry succeeds in making an album almost as weird
as Trampoline while at the same
time, settling into a practically decadent groove.

Also in this issue ...

Elf Power cover

Elfin Goodness

Brandon: With A Dream In Sound, Elf Power joins the Elephant 6 elite.

XTC cover

Nature Boys

Lane: Apple Venus Volume 1 contains some of the best songs
you'll hear all year.

Mudhoney logo

Not Fooling Anyone

Brandon: This album's so horrid I somehow managed to buy it twice.

Bad Religion logo

Forgotten Favorites: Bad Religion

Brandon: Motorhead did a song called "Bad Religion", and they
should be ashamed. Bad Religion also did a song called "Bad Religion".
An album-by-album overview of the Cali pop-punkers' long career.
