Scissorfight

The four dudes that make up Scissorfight have come together again to bring another, big, rich, powerful, rock record. These guys from New Hampshire get open on everything they do. Huge riffage tuned low. Scissorfight is most powerful rock band out there. People have asked over the last few years, “what new bands you like out there?” For 5 years I have been saying, “ the only new band I really like is Scissorfight.” After 6 releases, one a year since 1996 if I count correct, I guess I should stop considering them new. That is accomplished. On PNAFUW Scissorfight continue to offer me obscure glimpses into a tripped out world (NH?). I feel like I know less about with each release instead of more. The creative on this record is dope. Scissorfight go deep again and they are truly my favorite rock band if not some sort of guardians thereof. (Tortuga)

All my favorite harder core bands from the mid-nineties onward seem to come from Sweden and that shit has nothing to do with the Hives and the pussy ass attention the industry media hype has given the area, these bands have been working hard for years. The Refused deserves an award of some sort, Gluecifer I love and I think they have a new record I have to check, and Raised Fist is incredible. I believe I need to see these guys live almost immediately. Dedication, there new record on Burning Heart/Epitaph, is really good. There is a lot of attack and heartfelt instinctive ness to this band. The production is the most consistent sound, beginning to end, on an album I have ever heard. I don’t mean that as a criticism, I mean it as a professional compliment. The band knows their sound and what a Raised Fist record should sound like. (Epitaph)

Last Stop Suburbia

Total fucking C…RAP! I am insulted it was even in the HC/Punk section at Homers in Omaha. The suburbia thing has been maxed out at this point. I am from LI and I have that frustration built in, but I was going to shows when that movie dropped and I was bored and pissed out there. I wasn’t writing songs about listening to the radio all night long, I want to hear my favorite song yeah yeah yeah. (Drive Thru)

I can only hope someone will push the kid on the album cover off the house and onto the band, severely wounding him and those he lands on."Last Stop Trash Can"

HAHA

As so and so said, I am at least stuck in the 1980’s as far as music. I love G.B.H. and I love that they made another record even if I find it to lack a little of the punch the old records did. That can be expected as have most records of late by bands of my/the beginning. As the album starts with Ha Ha and Falling Down, I find the lyrics predictable for old punks and the songs fair. Although, I love hearing it because I would rather hear OK new records by old bands I love, than mostly anything new I have heard out there. (Go-Kart)
