The Strokes -- Is This It

  You know what I never bought all the hype about this band I always thought they were a wanna-be Punk version of Coldplay, and that ain't sayin' much.  Yeah yeah they had a couple of good chops and almost some good songs, but they seem to have gotten misdirected later in their career.  Because of their unauthenticity I get the impression they are fabricated by the label to sell products, like designer overpriced grunge ripped jeans and Coca-Cola (or cocaine).  Funny enough I was listening to Deerhunter's Monomania and kept thinking if The Strokes were any good they would have gone in that direction!

Biohazard -- State Of The World Address

  I hate this pathetic f*cking band.  I was subjected to these guys, many other carbon copies and worst for two days at Montebello's Rockfest, which I now deem the PIT OF HELL.  The small town in Quebec hosts a complete take over of a gargantuan amount of gutter punks, metalfreaks, junkies, weirdos and screwheads.  I have never seen anything like it, it was insane pandemonium all day every day ... luckily a hand full of classic punk bands saved the day including Screeching Weasel and (Black) Flag, otherwise it was a festival of shit, piss, puke, madness and Lord Worm!

The Evaporators -- Gassy Jack And Other Tales

  Ok I get it he's cool because he's so annoying and pretty much saddlebags celebrities into letting him interview them ... great, I love it.  But Nardwuar's Evaporators suck, it's a mix of Pop and Garage Punk in the worst way, the music is so irritating I had to turn it off!

George Thorogood & The Destroyers -- Bad To The Bone

  You don't really think I'd subject myself to this meaningless tripe?  This guy and his dumbasses almost single handedly "destroyed" Blues music by turning it into trash culture.  Just incase you didn't realize I hate this f*cking sh*t!  The title says it all!

Fight On, Your Time Ain't Long

  Killer comp of early Folk Blues that is reminiscent of The History Of American Folk Music.  This style represents the corner stone of all modern music, where would we be without these trailblazer rebels.  The closing number by Louise and Joseph Won't That Be A Happy Time, is a humongous proof of that point, Indie bands are still trying to mimic their kind of cool Lo-Fi sound -- good luck kiddies, cause hipsters have been around forever! 

The Gun Club -- The Las Vegas Story

  I'm a big fan of their first album, but The Las Vegas Story I just didn't get, it felt too loose, too polished and uninspired. 

Link Protrudi And The Jaymen -- Missing Links

  Lead by The Fuzztones frontman Rudi Protrudi, this instrumental Surf group contains no real surprises, it is what it says, Link Wray inspired Garage Punk.
